I heard win8 was terrible, but never knew why before.

If you don't use/need these Metro/Modern/UWP/whatever apps - i.e.
you just use/need Real Windows (TM) -, Windows 8.1 [1] is perfectly
fine.

[1] Note '8.1', not '8' (which was indeed not very good).

Win 8.0 was terrible, 8.1 a small improvement, and 10 (questionably)
another small improvement. That doesn't mean any of them was nearly as
good as 7.
