> What I'm curious about (and probably there are some good write ups about this somewhere) that how come modern Linux and modern Wine is better to run old Windows applications than modern Windows (7 to some extent but mostly 10&11).
Is it? I fail to see a justification for accepting the premise of your question.
That's an odd failure. The justification is in the second half of the paragraph.
If you think this is non-representative or that the poster is a liar, fine, but their reason for asking the question is right there.
> Like I use Windows every day and have no problems at all. And I use Linux every day too for work. But by my experience if I come around an old Windows application (Vista, XP, 2000 or before) then I probably have a better chance to run it as it meant to be on Linux w/ Wine than on Windows 10/11
