I agree, I can't remember the last time windows crashed. My home PC is a 2014 low-budget build and I don't recall any blue screens of death or freezes.

I often wonder if people run Windows on a potato to account for all the crashes people seem to have.

Anything NT based was a few orders of magnitude better than the old Win 95 systems that gave windows a reputation for crashing. That is what happens when you put some effort into good design. Things have gotten better because Microsoft has learned. Then again, everyone else has gotten better now.
