XP was tolerable with a decent theme like the embedded one, but default Luna is fucking awful. I still prefer the 9x/NT 4.0 style as my favorite, I wasn't a fan of the gradients that existed in the default style of ME/2k. Aero is my least favorite Windows UI to date, I recall that nobody particularly liked it at the time but now it seems fashionable to like it again for some reason. 10 has great concepts in fluent design but they need to bring it all together in a consistent way, if they can manage to do that I would consider 10 one of the best looks.

XP was an absolute shitfest at launch. If modern Windows versions are "beta quality" at release then XP was pre-alpha, it was barely usable until SP3 and by then Vista had become decent thanks to better consumer hardware, better driver support, and SP1's release. Combined with other things such as XP beginning to fall out of favor with software developers/hardware manufacturers, and Vista's general greatly improved featureset over XP it made switching a no-brainer. The only people who seem to have such heavy nostalgia for XP are underageb& who never actually experienced the early days and still used XP through 2010+ for whatever reason.

remember how i used to pimp out my xp laptop and show it off to my friends in middle school. this was my favourite theme. oh, the times.

>>62374265
I use to like it for a long time, but that's because I didn't know any other alternative, the idea of shitting icons all over you desktop and having them sully the desktop is pretty annoying, the names for the links/launchers are also inconsistent which means you have a fucked up set of launchers that look weird, a panel like in GNOME or Unity is superior because they are consistent, one-click, look great, easily scalable, and can be configured to save space by hiding, whilst the windows taskbar, can't.

besides, I'd bet a 3d desktop would be better, organize your launchers or some files in a grouped pattern, much like some kind of video game menu.

>>62384467
>3d desktop

>>62374374

>>62384592
I think it would be a bit more resource intensive, after all it would probably require some form of 3d acceleration if it's not done well.

and 3d acceleration means that you'll need drivers that can support it.

however if it's simple like you said with group launchers (I have the iOS app group in mind when talking about it) then it should be simple to implement, you do have some form of it in the 'activities' menu in GNOME and even more so in Unity's menu when you click Super
