Thanks for the follow! As someone who had a Windows XP / 90s office special interest starting in 2014-15 (before it really became an "aesthetic") and used 7 as my main OS until 2021, I've never been sure how I feel about it being an "aesthetic", but I dig your commitment to it and your lists of resources / tech stuff. Would you be interested in exchanging buttons?

sure i'd love to exchange site buttons. and thanks for the compliment. i also grew up with windows xp & 7 as well. however i understand feeling unsure about the aesthetic movement(?), since a lot of it is nostalgia-based

It's less the nostalgia, and more how every "aesthetic" inevitably ends up kind of watering down the reality, which is weird as someone with a vested special interest in that kind of thing. Like, where's my Microsoft Bob / Plus-core, you know? I had a full on snake-gijinka OC version of search assistant Courtney and nobody recognized her!

(I ofc know that Microsoft Bob / Plus is Windows 95, but I started feeling weird about it with Windows 95 vaporwave and it's only accelerated with the rise of XP / 7 aestheticization. Anyway, added your button.)

thanks for the explanation. it probs doesn't help that some fans of the aesthetic are too young to have actually experienced it, which isnt shade to them.just an observation
