Not me. I miss XP because of its stability and consistent UI. I miss 7 for similar reasons. Vista was a flop and I don't miss it even though "Vista times" were very nice for me. 10 and 11 have been unmitigated disasters.

> I miss XP because of its stability

Ah yes, the grand stability of plugging in the wrong USB accessory into the wrong USB port and the computer crashing. Great times :)

I don't remember this being the case. Keep in mind driver issues are not XP specific.

The stability only came with Service packs though. Initial XP had terrible security. I remember installing an out of the box xp in early 2000 and without doing anything it was infected by malware within 15 minutes of being put online.

The stability of connecting a fresh XP install to internet and immediately getting exploited.

What feature does windows 10 have that 7 didn't, that you find useful?

Personally the only thing I can think of is the slightly better calculator.

WSL.

The only useful feature of windows 10 is linux?

It’s not the only useful new feature but certainly the best one for most people on HN. Combining windows and Linux so well is great.

maybe, but they were also warmly received at the time they were released too.
