What operating system are you using

I use Windows 10, although my laptop originally came with 8.1, and I'm often sure I shouldn't have upgraded. Things have mostly been okay since I upgraded, although I do have issues every once in a while.

I own many hard disks with different operating systems. I use my Windows 7 with 32-bit the most. Until recently I had 64-bit, but a lot of old games like "Rayman" or "Wings of Glory" don't run with 64-bit.
With 32-bit I can use the Dosbox at least.
But It also has disadvantages with 32-bit admittedly. I actually have 6 GB Ram, but Only about 3 GB can be used. Moreover, many moderns games and Programs are incompatible. But these are usually Editors or other larger Programs which I'm only using seldom.

I've had my laptop for almost six years, came with Windows 7 but I upgraded to 10 last year.

Well, I use all three:

- my main is an imac with High Sierra on it
- my portable laptop for work/travel has Bodhi Linux
- my old workhouse laptop (7 years old at this point) is a triple boot between Windows 10, Bodhi Linux, and Linux Mint 18

I got a new laptop as a college graduation gift a few weeks ago, and it obviously would have Windows 10 on it. I reset my old laptop back to Windows 8.1, since upgrading that to 10 was a huge mistake that I regretted until it was undone. So now that I have both 8.1 and 10, I feel like I have more creative control over my computer stuff. Take that, Microsoft! I use my new Windows 10 laptop primarily for PC gaming, while my old Windows 8.1 laptop is used for projects like artwork and fanfiction. I wanted to create some sort of balance between them. The new one has 8 GB of RAM, while the old one has 4.

I'd had Windows 8.1 for the past 3-4 years, but this new laptop came with a build of Windows 10.
It wasn't as bad an OS as I'd envisioned. Has a few minor quirks, but nothing you can't fix by messing with good 'ol Windows Registry.

My main machine is a laptop with a triple-boot of Windows 7 32-bit, Windows 10 64-bit, and Arch Linux (along with a virtual Windows XP machine in VirtualBox).

My main laptop is a triple-boot with Windows 10, Ubuntu 18.04 LTS and Q4OS Linux 2.6.
I also just got my hands on an old laptop (about 12 years old; originally had XP) that I wiped and installed Bodhi Linux 5.0 on.

I have a MacBook Pro.

So I'm using macOS. It's a great OS for work.

I also install Fedora 29 at the MacBook Pro. I want to use an OS that I really understand how it works.

On my phone, I am using MIUI Global, which is a branch of Android 7.0. Because I have no choice…

Been with Windows 10 since 2016 or so?

For my phone, I have Android 8.0.0 (Oreo).
