minus-squarefreijon@lemmy.ziplinkfedilinkarrow-up5·6 days agoI just overwrote a Windows XP installation with Void Linux last weekend on an old netbook for a family member. But I felt very nostalgic when I booted a real XP system to see what was on it.
minus-squareMonkeMischief@lemmy.todaylinkfedilinkarrow-up2·edit-25 days agoI totally changed my KDE themes to be XP-esque, sound themes and all, just to have the good parts I missed, but keep a usable OS haha. M$ has done and continues to do a lot of terribad things, but XP wasn’t one of them. Computers felt fun back then. …Minus all the security issues. That’s gotten better with time… Edit: Oh yeah there’s a subreddit of people modernizing XP and making new drivers for it and stuff LOL
