You’re talking about a collection here whereas the GP singled out one specific OS without any parameters describing how that judgement was made. And it’s there’s a very broad range of parameters that need to be agreed upon. Those parameters will differ from one person to another.
And the fact that the GP has been downvoted in oblivion further demonstrates how others disagree with their statement. I’m not saying I agree or disagree with the peer-moderation though but rather using is a datapoint to illustrate that if 7 is “objectively” the best then there shouldn’t be any room for interpretation — and yet people are interpreting “best” differently.
See my other comment for examples.
- kennysoona 2y agoEh, I think the downvotes are more for questioning why someone would move to Linux (Which I wasn't questioning so much as the claim they were dying t get away from Windows) in a way that was perceived as rude rather than my ranking Windows 7 above other versions.
- hnlmorg 2y agoYou can try to argue that, and you might be right, however plenty still spoke up in disagreement with your ranking of Windows though. So my point still stands
- kennysoona 2y agoI don't see people speaking up disagreeing with W7 being the best, one guy said 10 was objectively better, but he didn't respond for us to be able to discuss. If you search best versions of windows, pretty much every single result is giving it to win7. I think that's sufficiently convincing evidence for my point. Also, in response to comment being downvoted as though that indicated something, your comment disagreeing with my first comment is more downvoted than my own, indicating more people disagree with your contention than with my ranking.
- hnlmorg 2y agoThen you need to look harder because comments are definitely there
- kennysoona 2y agoThere is one comment explicitly disagreeing saying 10 was better, the others are not disagreeing about the ranking if W7 at all so much as making the same point that subjectivity can play a part in considering what is the best, which is not something I ever disagreed with. One comment is just saying they didn't see what was great about W7 that it just seemed like vista, and other comments clarify things for that user.
- hnlmorg 2y agoI disagree. Go have another read of the comments. I counted at least 3 before I stopped reading.
- kennysoona 2y agoYou're probably misinterpreting some. Like there is one that says NT is the best...or maybe 2000...but that person is not disagreeing with ranking but making the point that subjectivity plays a part.
- hnlmorg 2y agoI disagree about misinterpreting them. But glad you're now identifying that others have also disagreed with your opinion about which was the best.
- kennysoona 2y agoYou disagree about a lot of things even when the evidence isn't subjective or open to interpretation in the least. Fascinating. As previously stated, it's not merely an opinion that W7 is the best, but an objective argument supported by reasoning and evidence, also both objective. But by all means, let's keep discussing this despite your proclamations to want to be done.
