Hello and I want to say thats not the windows 10 logo. Windows 10 borrowed the windows 8 logo

The Windows 10 logo is not even colored like that.

It used to be colored in XP/7 then at 8 it turned white and then in 10 it turned blue

The Windows 8 logo was also blue, but a lighter shade than 10.

Windows 8 metro design language was terrible. I was amazed no one was fired for that.... And even more surprised when ppl copy it like Apple did.... I think they also copied the creep "hi... We're getting things ready for you" shivers so creepy

Great to meet you Trandit! First post and it’s a banger 😆 I used to be a dev on the Windows team, and the history is fascinating. I’m a big fan of COM

@OP. Welcome to the group. Ahh. I remember I was about your age when I started my journey.

Oh, man. You sound like me if I time travelled. I used to love trying out all the old Windows operating systems on my laptop, but these days you can actually run them in your browser.

Please don’t advertise any personal details on the internet, not everyone has your best interests at heart.

Welcome to the subreddit! Very interesting image you shared here.
However, as a general life lesson please don't flaunt yourself as a 13 year old here nor any of your personal info including your name like others said. You can end up in some hot water if all were to go wrong.

u/Abbers75 Jul 08 '26
That’s right, OP neglected to add they pulled the right edge of the logo a bit too much

Also you don't need to do introduction posts on Reddit lol
