I’ll concede that Windows’ shittiness taught me some things, but I don’t think it actually taught me much that was useful because of how opaque and poorly designed it was. Like, yeah I could edit registry keys and I know what A:\ and C:\ were, but that stuff doesn’t mean shit outside of Windows. It was mainly the abstraction gained by moving away from Windows that actually taught me stuff.
