Windows 2000 was the absolute best windows hands down.

But now it's cachyos for me going forward. Never again will I install windows.

I've used it recently. The ui is still snappier on the original machine than w11 today on a new one.

I'd be interested knowing why it got so bad. Is it for lack of time or focus on optimization? Is there a reason lazy loading isn't used? Why is the tooling so convoluted, by choice or as a victim of ever growing complexity?

Amen. I've hated every windows OS after Windows 2000.
