A lot of security issues then, but it was a different time. I remember running packet captures on corporate and academic networks and just being awed by what I saw. Back then you didn't have many sites using TLS on the web; so much network traffic was just plaintext. Part a lack of computational power, part a lack of concern by the average computing consumer (using PGP for e-mail messaging back then was rare among us geeks, despite how accessible it was, lol still is I suppose). </p><p>I jumped on the 64-bit XP OEM release back then, and it was a headache for what could run on it. It was clearly an afterthought for MS to do that with XP. Some 64-bit open-source projects could be compiled or had binaries to run, so I had a good albeit bumpy 2 year go with it. I still have the CD-ROM at home 😄</p><p>I flipped to more than half the time in Linux in the early 2000s, after tinkering with it since 1996. If you wanted to play around with network services, yes, it blows Windows out of the water there, and I also prefer text configs over IIS and registry modifications 🙂</p><p>When 64-bit became more mainstream, even Linux was slow to move except for the kernel (that was quick!). I've been with <a href="https://social.linux.pizza/tags/ArchLinux" class="mention hashtag" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">#<span>ArchLinux</span></a> since it came out, and I remember discussing on the forums and helping get more 64-bit applications going. Not that many years ago from today they have completely deprecated 32-bit, it's a side project. Oh man, have the times changed (and that's a good thing).</p><p>XP was really a good UI, in my opinion though. The Control Panel was easy to pick up, and NT core was impressive back then. I also liked Windows 2000 over 98/ME for that NT reason. Way less telemetry, search just worked (Windows 10 and 11 are a mess on that still), and the UI stayed out of your way compared to Vista and beyond. </p><p>That said, I spend most of my time in Linux these days for work, gaming, publishing, etc. It's the operating system that has best suited me for the past couple of decades.</p>

Lazy beardude<p>It's good that there are some people that are catching these malicious packages but yeah. Desktop Linux is becoming a worthy target as it becomes more popular.</p><p>I mean it's AUR. There's a part on the arch wiki that states that the packages there "are completely unofficial and have not been thoroughly vetted.

Then I switched to i3. Then a short while after to Manjaro + i3.
