Vista was truly the greatest Windows I’ve ever used. I had been using 98 and XP when I bought my first Laptop (the first computer that was truly mine that I had bought with my own money) and it was running Vista of course. Being a curious computer user I twiddled with the system a lot and it broke A LOT so I learned fixing (or reinstalling it) eventually I figured out that Windows only lets you get so far in twiddling and customization so I tried out that hacker OS Linux with a dual boot at first and eventually switching completely. Haven’t run Windows as a daily driver since ~2011-12 now working as a Linux Sysadmin. All thanks to that stupid piece of shit Vista :)
Damn! That’s definitely a “I’m old” moment for me. I still remember when I first heard about the concept and I remember setting it up the first time on a self hosted project (which seemed harder back then).
Awesome project!
