Right and last year it was full of Windows 8 horror stories and the years before that it was full of Windows 7 horror stories. In other news - StackOverflow.com is full of programming problems so programming must suck. Point being - /r/sysadmin is where people go to complain and ask questions.

Also, it's empirically verifiable, not an anecdote - that Windows 10 runs all the same apps that I've been able to run for decades on previous versions of Windows without issue. That's what I call rock solid.

As a steady reader or that sub, I can say Enterprise never got on the Win8 bandwagon and the reception to Win7 was a lot more positive. We barely had any issues with our migration to 7 and we did it same year release.

That's /r/techsupport. This sub is supposed to be only IT pros. A lot of the issues I see are outside of the "I just need a facebook machine" use cases, so a home user like you may not ever have these issues, but trust me, your IT department sure as hell is having issues.

Sorry to disappoint you but I am my IT department and I'm not having any issues...and neither are the IT departments from several companies that I work with.

And as a steady reader of that sub and of the Microsoft multi-sub, I heartily disagree with your observation. Both Win7 and Win8 had loads of "horror stories", just like WinXP before it. People are pretty much going to complain about any new Windows version.
