I don't know if anyone else has noticed, but Microsoft seems to almost be doing the missteps in a pattern/on purpose.
Win95 vs Win98/ME/etc (? not sure)
WinXP vs Vista
Win7 vs Win8
Win10 vs Win11?
It's like the Intel's tick-tock model almost. On some level I do think that bashing this is a bit hypocritical when most of us nerds are also the first ones to bemoan a lack of innovation.

It's a two iteration learning process, and this time they need to learn people don't want ads and telemetry. Windows 12 will be privacy first.
It's more
95/98 -> 98SE
ME -> 2000/XP
Vista -> 7
8 -> 8.1
Can't say about 10 as the version numbers are harder to track
Thanks, I knew I was getting most of them wrong, haven't touched Windows in years, memory is very hazy
