Consider the following. Windows is the best operating system. Since the earliest versions, starting at about version 3, it has consistently outclassed all other operating systems in terms of performance, ease of use, software compatibility and hardware support. This is no coincidence - people don't choose to use Windows because they are not aware of alternatives, they choose to use Windows because it's the best option, it always was, ever since the early nineties. While other systems were focusing on aesthetics or features no one would use 2 years later, Microsoft kept one thing in mind for Windows, and that was usability. Usability is the game changer. What do other systems have to offer? Sure macOS is pretty, but is it usable? Sure Linux has some nifty features, but is it usable? The answer is sadly no, and this is why Windows has and will remain the only real driving force in the OS market. Windows is simply great.
Holy shit... I'll have to bleach my eyes now from all the shit I just read.
I agree with you OP

As someone who actually used computers in the 90s: No, it was not the only OS and no it wasn't even the best OS, but Microsoft had struct some seriously good OEMs, that meant that ALL i286s and i386s came with DOS and Windows, and that also meant that people started becoming accustomed to Windows.
NT isn't that terrible but 9x was far and away the worst operating system family of the 90s, Microsoft won through aggressive marketing and by paying software developers to develop exclusively for Windows.
pic related, it was 10 years ahead of 9x but IBM fucked up the release and it never achieved widespread adoption

There was literally nothing wrong with Windows 98, it was just an improved 95.
