That would be 7. With 10 Microsoft went heavily into the snooping business.
The telemetry of Windows 10 back in 2015 ain't got jack shit on the adware craziness they got years later
The LTSC version of Windows 10 is pretty good, relatively. No bloat or ads.
8.1 is a faster version of 7 that also has some compatibility with apps that are said to require 10. Just disable those metro things and use your favorite app for start menu.
I'm glad I have finally seen someone else who appreciates windows 8 (or at least is willing to admit it). People just lose their shit when there are any changes to the start menu, but the best start menu is to not have one at all.
Windows 8 has way better hotkeys (limit seaeching to files, programs, or applications) compared to the unified search in newer versions.
Actually I'm a fan of having a start menu but I also used some other apps and launchers, even a dock (RocketDock is one of the most useful apps for me and it's a shame it never received the x64 version).
Used 8.1 for years and didn't need to reinstall it even once. I appreciate it for its technical side. From what I understand it was developed together with the mobile version so it's somewhat lighter on resources. It also lacks aero which adds to that.
