Microsoft has officially ended support for Windows 8 and nobody cares. Probably because no one used it, amirite? Was there anything worth remembering in this wildly unpopular version of Windows?

I'm still using my original 8.1 installation for more than 7(8?) years already without any issues, I've never had problems with it. 7 looked better to me, but 8.1 was still nice. Of course I'm using a 3rd party start menu so it looks the same way as Win7 and this is from day 1. I have 0 complains with my installation so far. The only reason why I might update it to maybe 10 is the Linux subsystem for Windows.

I was actually working at Best Buy as the newly minted Microsoft Associate, got full advanced training on Win 8 and all. It was... Rough. Even proponents of 8 had these same criticisms. When we were doing pre-orders for new devices, I had a woman come in to buy our absolute cheapest desktop to give to her 6 year old nephew. The idea was that his little mind would learn it quickly and she'd have her own little tutor. Absolutely genius.

It had Windows RT, the Metro only version. I have a failed unboxing video of the Surface Pro with a "Year of the Snake" keyboard cover that will never see the light of day.

My issue with windows 8 was that you HAD to restart in 15 minutes for updates. Your options were "restart now or in 15 minutes". I was in college at the time and a lot of tests were done online, and there were people who lost time on their tests because of this. One failed because he couldn't get back in after the restart. I can understand their goral, but at the same time, make it a setting you can turn off, and have it off by default.

I freaked out and had to click 15 minutes, but a lab in Uni is a lot longer than 15 minutes and I had to sit there, hand-writing all of the data that my group was getting so I can try to finish it in my dorm on my desktop while the damned thing spent the rest of the lab applying updates and rebooting.

Fortunately most of those shops hopped to Server 2016 when that shipped and fixed most of the issues.

The only bad thing about Windows 8 was the lack of a Start button, the way the Start menu rendered over top of the task bar. The worst thing brought forward to Windows 11 Fluid UI (the modern version of Modern UI) is the massive amount of whitespace between control elements. That's fine for a tiny touch screen but it is absolutely mentally deficient when on a large PC monitor (mouse or touch). I could dismiss that problem if there was a way to change information density of Fluid UI controls to eliminate all that whitespace. There isn't a way to change that though.

With the update to 8.1, Windows 8 did eventually get pretty useable. I remember Luke saying that a long ways back on the WAN Show. Still a misstep, especially in terms of backwards compatibility, but most all complaints were fixed in 10, and as you said, a lot of cool features were added. I feel like the only reason Vista had so much adoption was because gamers wanted the best of the best, and DX10 (I believe) was Vista exclusive, and I believe Halo 2 and Gears of War were Vista only as well. It was also flashy, pretty, and had a truly functional x64 version (XP x64, I love ya, I enjoyed ya, but man were you a pain).

Except I thought it was pretty cool and kept it the whole year, even though i didnt have a touchscreen laptop. I loved rearranging the tiles on the homescreen and made everything i needed (my class notes, etc) super accessible. When i got a Nokia Lumia phone with the same design in 2014, i customised it to look like a tumblr blog with photo tiles everywhere. Good memories :) but definitely get the frustration.

I've had a very low end computer for a long time and 8.1 was literally my main OS for almost the entirety of it, I loved that it was lightweight and super responsive; and when you configured the start tiles, I actually preferred it to a corner menu. I also liked that it allowed me to play mobile games I couldn't elsewhere like Asphalt and Alto's Adventure. The metro interface and its apps didn't bother me and (unpopular opinion I know) but I liked the new design a lot too. I tried moving to 10 when it was offered as a free upgrade but was so much heavier to my poor Celeron 847 with 2GB of RAM that it eventually made me move back to 8.1, then experimenting (and later going full time) over to Linux.

There was a bunch of good things introduced in windows 8, that I actually miss when I occasionally step back to windows 7 or vista. But the UI for PC users was annoying. Even with the 8.1 improvements it felt like I had to fight against the UI to get it to fit into my workflow. Some of my biggest annoyances with windows 10 are carry overs from windows 8, like the default video app always opening in full screen and a multi step process to return to windowed mode. It makes it significantly harder to multi task apps. I feel the same way about windows 11. There are many technical improvements, but it's not worth the sacrifice of the workflow.

I was actually annoyed when I upgraded to Win10 because so many of the shortcuts I had gotten used to just weren't there anymore. That said, that laptop died and my desktop replacement has caused all muscle memory of those short cuts up atrophy, so I guess it wasn't that bad of a thing in the long run.

My history with win8: it came with my laptop, worked alright for a while. Once it updated and completely destroyed the audio drivers, and at one point it BSOD'd due to wifi drivers that had worked fine long before. Had to also start completely from zero once. At one point I had enough and drove to a 24h electronics shop at like 3am, bought an ssd, installed win7 on it, and it's still working fine to this day.

2012 R2 was kind of forced upon me when building out a VBlock. VCE in their infitie wisdow customised their 2012 R2 VMs by leaving in the Windows Store alongside the "Desktop experience". I don't think I EVER saw a metro app for Server 2012. All that effort of a metro interface, through to Administrative Tools only to be dropped back to an interface from 2008 and older. I also suffered the animations which on a slow connection made a frustrating RDP experience. In the end GPOs were deployed to turn off any fade effects or animations. It felt like Windows 95 but it was the only way to not have to painstaking wait for the pointless menu to render. Fun fact... Even VMwares hands on labs didn't like the Start menu of 8/8.1 and 2012/2012 R2. The Terminal Servers spun up with each lab would have Classic Shell installed. Thankfully they now run on 2016/2019.

I think it was kind of lacking in the apps department with the tablet being able to use only Windows apps. The downfall of the Windows tablet for me was the fact that all the Windows updates ended up taking all the space and eventually I would have to remove files or even do a complete reset. But I guess it went through too many resets since it stopped connecting to the Microsoft servers and couldn't really do much with it after that.

I used Windows 8 and I didn't think it was that bad once you got used to it. My main problems with it was that: (1) it was designed for a touch screen which I didn't have, and (2) the UI had a number of changes that were not explained. Due to that, it took me a while to figure out how the UI actually worked. As an example, for the first time I ended up with several windows open until I figured out how to close them with my mouse. That convinced me that what Microsoft should have done with Windows 8 is when you boot up your computer for the first time it asks you a series of questions (if you decide to bypass the questions it will just take you to a default Windows 8). The answers to those questions would configure Windows 8 specifically for you. Questions such as "Do you have a touch screen? (Y/N)" "Do you want a Start Menu? (Y/N)" and "Do you want the standard icons for minimizing, maximizing and closing the window in the right-hand corner of the windows? (Y/N)" When you finished answering the questions it would configure Windows 8 according to your answers. If you later choose to change things you can run the initial questions again or just go through the Settings (where all of those setting are in one place).

Everything just looks the same, they have such a weird aversion to simple, logical lists and hide everything in random sub-submenus because they're way too focused on making it look "clean", rather than making it convenient to actually use. It's form over function and it's stupid!

The new bluescreen is also helpful since not everyone is so technical about it. The search page with bing was beautifully interactive. It was the lightest official OS from Microsoft compared to Windows 7 and 10. Windows Live (password manager?) was the first password manager that I've used since it just seamlessly synchronize between computer and (back then when I have) lumia's phone. The music app (before it was bought by Microsoft then became groove), was the best one. The artist cover, lyrics, radio, etc is just wow. For the 2013 era, it was the best one. It just sadly people and the developer doing it so wrong and ofc Microsoft is at the wrong era.

These are teething things that happen with every major shift and things were seeing now with Win11 even though its built on 10.

Never really was a huge fan of minimalism I always like having everything right there in front of me and available and it felt So much easier to get around when everything was on one nice screen instead of a bunch of cascading menus or the huge scroll bar that gets longer and longer the more programs you install like Windows 10 has I know it's a hard thing for people to grasp but I truly believe it is possible for something to be too organized to the point of inconvenience and I think that that's the best way to describe the Windows 10 start menu They took the good concept of the Windows 8 one but overorganized it and simplified it too much to the point where it became actually more complicated to use

I think if MS would’ve used the start screen as an on demand launcher instead of trying to replace the desktop a lot more people would’ve liked Windows 8. There was also the initial issue of some drivers not being compatible with it but it was solved fast. After those initial hiccups Windows 8 became very fast and usable.

Once you got to the desktop, Windows 8 had quite a few nice tweaks to the explorer UI that we all take for granted to this day. Main one for me was the copy dialog, Windows 7 (if I recall) was basically just a progress bar with a cancel button. Windows 8 onwards is the far nicer "download manager"'' esque version, just having a pause button was a game changer for me in prioritising large scale copies, or seeing the transfer speed. Wasn't enough for me to ditch my classic Windows interface, so I stuck with 7 until 10 came out, but when I did have to use 8, I could definately see the benefits. Basically MS didn't forget the classic interface with 8, they just went through a mid-life crisis. Everyone needs to live through a Microsoft Bob I guess!

Then, on win 10 this habit of "windows key for everything" turned into searching by first 2 letters of app name and using tiles like that still, but on 11 i exclusively use search now and taskbar.

Overall hated it. The missing start menu, particularly when dealing with Remote Desktop, was a huge pain. It's like nobody expected anyone to manage an enterprise environment from Windows 8 (even though Server Manager was installable at this point to do so). The unusual metro apps (and the new start menu with tiles) were probably the thing that bugged me the most about it though.

@@Phantogram2 I disagree on the 'faster' part, but I think it really depends on how you use your computer. I didn't use the start menu in the traditional sense. I opened it and started typing a search query (you could simply type and it would search). I never touched the tiles, just typed the first couple letters to find what I wanted, then clicked on it. This is what I did in Windows 7 and is what I do in Windows 10 and 11 still. One of the issues was that it wouldn't find stuff frequently because it would pick a seemingly random app category, finding nothing until you clicked the right category that the item you wanted was in. Windows 7 didn't do that. Windows 10 and 11 don't do that either. I don't even remember 8.1 doing that. And again, not being able to click the bottom left pixel reliably because I'm in a nested remote desktop session managing Windows Server 2012 (the server version of 8) was stupid. Half the time, it also didn't recognize which window I was in, so even pressing ctrl+esc didn't consistently work on the right RDP session, same with the windows key. It was great for someone like my mom or my grandparents who have very little computer experience, but it was a terrible experience for a power user who had preexisting expectations. Windows 10 did it right by making all the options (searching, list view or tiles) feasible and in their best iterations even if I overall preferred Windows 7.

I still miss Windows 8 on that device and how my Lumia 920 worked seamlessly with it. I could have my headphones on and place and take calls within Windows, send a text, sync my music with SkyDrive. Good times, simpler times. I guess it was a flash in the pan. Solid gaming OS though, really solid. I guess Server 2012 will be retiring too. I've gotten used to seeing that familiar look in VMs and servers for so long. The time flies...

Windows 8.1 was my first proper introduction to Windows from years long hiatus (Windows 2000 was what I used at work years before). And it was on a Surface Pro 3 that had great touch functionality. On one hand, the tile Start Window was amazing. It made selecting apps as easy as on an iPad. But now how do I close them? Why are there two control panels - Which one do I use? Why are there two different versions of the same app such as OneNote? How do I switch from app to app? I know the answers to those things now, but boy was I confused at the time. Windows 10 was less confusing to me. But it lost a lot of the touch screen magic that Microsoft just needed to refine. It had two settings - regular mode and tablet mode. Tablet mode should have been more like Windows 8.1.
