    Software peaked around 2008. And that’s a looong time ago now.

    Yes there has been a few improvements since then, but nothing that can really be said to compensate for the massive enshittification of performance, basic quality control, UI, UX, pricing as well as the anti-user practices that have become commonplace.

      Sad I never got to experience it.

      The 2008 financial crises rendered me homeless through my teenage years and my early adult years. I went from experiencing Windows XP/Mac OSX 10.4 straight to Windows 8.1 (I just missed Vista and was quickly introduced to Windows 10).

        You missed Windows 7 because you were homeless? Bruh.

        Hope you’re doing better. At least it’s the golden age of Linux right now!

          Yeah, ditched Windows 10 as soon as I could. Most of the tools I use have Linux native versions.
