Oh come on stop spreading the Windows 98 old stories. Windows 10 is a piece of crap spyware but it is stable.

We have >8K active Win10 workstations on our domain.

I wish you weren't wrong.

    I'm a software dev but since we're only 2 techies at work I also maintain about 40 Windows PC, 3 Hyper-V hypervisors (with something like half a dozen Windows server, the rest are Linuxes) and the printers.

    If Windows 10 was unstable I should be swamped. But I spend more than 90% of my time on software dev.

    And the machines are not new with fresh installs, I all migrated them manually from Windows 7.

They completely broke Alt-Tab in 20H2 so no, it's not.

    The unspoken rule didn't change because it's Windows 10: never install a fresh release of an OS right away (I'm still on 20H1). And judging by the comments I read here it's true for MacOS too.

    FWIW I switched from XP to Vista 1 or 1.5 year after its release date. It has been a great OS for me, I never had a problem with it (except that it's then they started with the bullshit telemetry).

    Of course YMMV, but since late Vista stability isn't a major issue anymore.
