Windows 2000 was peak. All improvements from XP onwards were negligible.

Improvements? Windows has suffered an ever-accelerating slide into the toilet, starting with Vista.

It was all downhill from 3.11

That was the best. With sound drivers

It crashed a lot. It's hard to imagine these days how often it crashed. Windows 2000 was peak for me. NT kernel, inofficial but very solid compatibility with pretty much everything DOS / Windows including games, and a clean, efficient UI.

Yes, it was a joke. 2000 was indeed good. XP, 7 and 10 also not too bad for their time
