I don’t remember anyone being excited for a version of Windows since 7. 8 and 8.1 were universally hated, a lot of people clung to 7 until they absolutely had to upgrade to 10, and now they’re clinging to 10 as long as they can. I seriously doubt there’s an upcoming release of Windows people will genuinely like and want, because there’s no money in doing that.
Yeah, but even before that…people were only excited about 7 because of how much of a dumpster fire Vista was. And prior to XP (which Vista replaced), most people didn’t care about OS versions at all.
Yeah, it definitely has the Star Trek movie curse.
Each only in comparison to its predecessor, though. I still think Windows 7 was the last version to get out of its users’ way and just let them use their computer; everything since then has been worse than 7 in some subtle way.
They do this every 4-5 years. Nobody is ever bothered enough to cause a problem for Microsoft’s bottom line.

8.1 was fine imo, but not really worth an upgrade from 7 unless it was free.
I was excited for 10. I had 8 on my college laptop
We need to wait for the next version, 12 or wherever. Every other Windows version is “good”
