I agree, I never really liked Metro and the minimalism of Material design doesn't vibe with me either. It's mostly a personal taste thing though, I know several others who do like minimalism.

About it being weird to be nostalgic for Windows 7, it's not to me, but I think it has to do with how it was the last OS I used that didn't involve either several awful bugs to the point of unusability (Windows 10) or requiring extensive knowledge of how the system works (Linux) to daily-drive it; so I guess I look at it fondly as the last time I was "computer-innocent", so to say.
