Windows 2000 was the last cohesive version of windows. Windows XP was half XP, half 2000 (and all the good parts were 2000). Windows 7 is half 2000, half XP, half Vista, Windows 8 was half 2000, half 7, half vista, half 8.
And the best parts of windows 11 are still just Windows 2000.

2000 was actually stable.
A few years ago I bought a thin client and installed Windows 98 on it, and I got a reminder of how much the 9x series blew chunks. Took me installing it three times just to get a stable install. Moreover, Windows 2000 had the first journaling file system on windows, which fundamentally changed the reliability of storage. Prior to that, a bad reboot could torch your FAT and leave you having to reinstall.
If you did spin the wheel and get a decent install, 98SE was pretty ok, but 2000 definitely was the one you wanted to use if you wanted your system to run and your data to remain where you left it.
