Cherry-picked anecdotes are worthless.
Few if any people glorified Panther when Tiger came out, or Leopard when Snow Leopard came out, or Win3.11 when Win95 came out, or Win95 when Win98 came out, or WinME when WinXP came out, or Vista when Win7 came out.
Stop dismissing legitimate complaints just because you worship "new and shiny"

- chris_wot 9y agoNo, he’s right. Whilst there was a bit of criticism of Windows XP, most people were fine with it and it was widely praised. Same with Windows 98. In fact, Windows ME, Windows Vista and Windows 8 were widely criticised when they came out for good reasons, and Windows 7 and Windows 10 were widely praised.
