Honest question... In what ways is 10 markedly better than 8.1? I was auto upgraded when 10 came out but got fed up in short time and rolled back.

Smaller footprint. Better stability. Nicer drivers (although i'd like to use my own unsigned drivers from time to time).

Granted, Windows 10 needs a HUGE LOT of tweaking to get optimised results (horrible horrible bloatware and privacy shit). You also may need a bunch of tools to get it to your liking. But when it is tweaked to your liking, it runs smooth. An i3 on SSD boots to desktop within 15 seconds.
