Windows 8 is described as 'Operating system that is optimized for tablets, desktops and hybrid devices. It features the new Modern UI (formerly called Metro-Style) that is designed for touchscreen, mouse, keyboard, and pen input' and is a very popular operating system in the os & utilities category. There are more than 50 alternatives to Windows 8 for a variety of platforms, including Linux, Self-Hosted, BSD, Mac and Windows apps. The best Windows 8 alternative is Windows 10. It's not free, so if you're looking for a free alternative, you could try CentOS or Raspberry Pi OS. Other great apps like Windows 8 are GhostBSD, Univention Corporate Server (UCS), OpenMandriva Lx and Bodhi Linux.
