    Windows 10 was only perceived as good because Microsoft forced everyone to use it by ending support for Windows 7. If they stopped supporting Windows 7 in 2014 people would think that windows 8.1 was a good OS

      It’s considered good because it’s usable and you can still ignore all those junk it introduce and use it like a basic OS. Also mostly because 11 is full of junk so 10 somehow still considered good.

      Kinda same logic with 8.1, it is “good” because it’s better than 8, and 10 is better than 8.1 so we’re seeing some ascent between 8 and 10, but overall it’s still downhill.

      For me and good and bad are relative: windows 10 was waaaay better than 8, and for some aspects it is quite good, objectively it’s still crap for many other things
