Vista was underrated though.

No. It was a crash test dummy for windows 7.

It was a beta that wasn't stable.

it was as stable as windows 11, but the uac system and other security chnages broke a lot of apps, including some system services. As soon as the apps adapted it became pretty decent.
About the performance, win7 isn't lighter than vista, vista just came out too early

Windows 11 has been pretty rock solid for me.

Vista was not and working in IT for a long time I saw enough examples of vista to never recommend it.

XP was better at everything until windows 7 came along.

It doesn't matter how light an OS is if it isn't stable.

Windows 11 is in its beta phase. Like windows 10 was until 2018.

And 11 is the beta for 12.

Vista was the warcrimes of OSes

My first laptop ever came with Vista and it's was so bug ridden and crashed constantly. It was so nice when windows 7 finally came out.

This and Windows 8 and 8.1: either crappy or confusing

[-] BaardFigur@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

At least it wasn't a virus magnet

[-] Ross_audio@lemmy.world 3 points 10 months ago

It really was though. UAC didn't actually work until windows 7.
