That's a phrase I would never have thought I'd see. I remember Windows 8 as being generally despised when it first came out.

On the UI side of things the trouble with 8 was the push towards touch as the latest shiny object to chase, coming a few years into the boom of smartphones/tablets. The start menu was full screen with no option and many OS applications were either full screen only or by default until you clicked a new title bar button. The 8.1 release pulled back from a lot of that.
There's no bottom. It can always get worse.
