It might be some weird act of masochism but I liked clippy.
Really, huh, that's ... kinda nice to know? (In the 'world is the tiniest bit better than I knew' way)
I have enjoyed various creepy Clippy art/mini lore.
It's basically an SCP thing.
I did too, but I was a child and in retrospect I feel like that made me the target audience.
Like I get that Microsoft has for a long time been trying to make tech and computers feel non threatening. And clippy feels like a reasonable attempt especially within the program it was created for Microsoft Bob which was something I can totally see a world in which it had been popular
Just install vigor.
I’m glad someone did.
