    I upgraded from Windows XP to Vista after the 2nd servicepack fixed most of the shit. By that point it was a tolerable OS.

    I am currently hoping for a major service pack next year to fix all the stupid shit they did in Windows 11.

    You know kind of like when they fucked up windows 8, attempted a quick fix in 8.1 and finally fixed it in win10.

    Of course they are at 4 major updates with win11 and it’s still shit so the hope is very thin.

      I can understand if you would want to delay on a personal machine. That’s your call. However, I am of the opinion that you should not gamble the business on it. You should not have any EOL devices in use, period. (Unless it is properly airgapped)

        every business still running custom software on XP machines, press X to doubt.

          What do you mean? We just migrated that software to a Windows XP VM running on Windows 7! That was just 15 years ago, it’ll be good for another 15 for sure.
