I've been consistently reading in this thread that Win10

Windows 7 user here: windows 10 is a fucking train wreck both visually and in terms of usability. Worst part is I was tricked into updating to windows 10 when I clicked the "X" on the little update window thing. Said fuck it and tried it for a month and then just re-installed Windows 7 after Windows 10 was no longer free and being shoved down people's throats. Honestly considering Linux after microshaft stops supporting windows 7.

The SSD being shit I don't get unless you get one under 240GB of capacity.

the only hope for Linux to gain popularity is Vulkan, all those teenagers normie gaymers will end using linux

>>56910283
Nah, linux will always be that OS only a few people use since most people want to have their gaymes and shitty microsoft software.

Not that I care though, as long as linux can let me watch chinese cartoons and have a few useful programs for simple stuff then I'm good.

For now I'll await the death of my beloved Windows 7 like everyone else.

How is it a train wreck both visually and usability?

Would you be so kind to explain?

>>56910208
Surveillance aside, Windows 10 still has some compatibility issues, and the last update somehow managed to break a ton of shit for some users. Also it's a mild annoyance to have to uninstall fucking candy crush every "security" update.

For SSDs, the advantages to owning them are exaggerated, and the most noticeable benefit of improved boot times is lost on users who don't shut off their PCs anyway. Purchase consideration should be based on your usage habits

It looks like it was designed for toddlers and most settings and way of doing things differs from Windows 7 too much. I know change can be good but in this case it just seems to irritate people to no end for some reason.

/g/ is a memeboard. Right now Windows 8, the worst OS since ME, is getting massive amounts of praise on here despite being designed for tablets.

90% of /g/ uses Linux anyway. Asking for Windows advice here is like asking /a/ for hygiene tips.

Launxh W10 was fine. These weekly updates are flat out killing it though.

Every big patch makes me reinstall W10. Works fine till the next patch though...

As of now, all the windows store apps lock up on me if they lose focus. Meaning I have to close and reopen them everytime I go back.

Starts PC:
>Compatibility telemetry -> 97% disk usage (15 mins)
>Windows Module Installer -> 100% Disk usage (30 mins)
>Rundll32 Process -> 100% CPU usage (just stuck in there and you got to kill it manually)
>Antimalware service executable -> 100% disk usage (20 mins)

Also, when you leave the computer on, back in ten minutes, CPU melting, disk exploding..WTF... Rundll32 eating all PC resources...
