I'm not certain what point you are attempting to make, The size of Windows install has not smaller and therefore improving install time, but rather the hardware has gotten so much faster. Installing from a USB 3 key is so much faster than floppy or optical media, as well as NVMe drives are receiving the data vs old spinning rust drives.
Ah my point is that Widows hasn't gotten worse. You can probably still find old forum posts complaining about Vista...
It was always bad. It is now easier to fix it. We are making progress lol.
You can find complaints about Windows Vista, but then find praise around Windows 7. Being better than a single point in the past doesn't imply a trend. The perceived quality varies between releases, and it's clear that Windows 11 has dipped in that regard.
Even windows 7 had complaints when released but it kept improving, on the other hand windows 11 is deteriorating in both stability and anything new added is either half baked or unnecessary borderline user hostile.
