That lie didn’t last long… And they’re EoLing it this coming October! Can’t they wait until 12 at least to do that?

Stop it. permalink fedilink source parent hideshow 2 child comments replies: [–] zerofk@lemm.ee 5 points 2 years ago Not a perfect analogy, but it fits. 11 is literally 10 with a higher build number and a different shell. The same relation exists between 2000 and XP. The problem is that the shell is what people interact with, and what they equate “Windows” with. Which is understandable and to some extent even correct. I also think there’s a fair amount of memory bias. People complained about every new Windows version. permalink fedilink source parent [–] DieserTypMatthias@lemmy.ml 1 point 2 years ago If the number is odd, then it'll be great. permalink fedilink source parent
