What the fuck are you talking about? Vista and especially 7 were the best looking windows versions, unlike the flat and dull metro design of 8-10.
I see this opinion more and more as Gen Z starts joining vintage PC spaces. I don’t know if I agree (well I do agree that windows 8 and 10 suck), I always set the theme to classic and turned off aero first thing when using vista/7
Probably because it’s what a lot of us grew up with. My childhood was dominated by XP and by the time I was a semi-regular PC user, 7 was the state of the art. I remember trying to make the XP installation on my old laptop look more like Vista.
I never liked the classic windows look. It’s so dull and grey.
