It works; it does all that I need it to do.
Works for work (Visual Studio); works for games (Steam, and Battle.net)
Works for photos (Lightroom), works for music (Fruity Loops).
Works for web browsing.
That is pretty much all I do on Windows.
I don't see any big issues, or, thinking about it, any (*)
(*) There are always exceptions, I have a recurring File Explorer crash due to some Shell extensions, probably tortoise GIT.
I'd rather be phishing!

It looks to me like you're using it as an OS, to run your hardware and give you access to the applications that you want to use. That's commendable, because you're using the OS for the precise reason that it exists.
It's a shame that they don't share your focus.

It is stable for me and prefer it to my office computer; which is running Windows 7.

"After the Win10 Anniversary Upgrade"...
After? I've tried installing this upgrade six times. Each time it gets to 90% plus, then comes up with "Restoring your previous operating system".
Not a word or hint of what the problem may have been - just "I'll put you back where you were".
Thanks MS - how about some diagnostics?

I ran the upgrade and had stability issues.
So I did a clean re-install and no longer have stability issues.
It's basically a re-skin of Windows 7 at this point, after the data aggregators were turned off. It's fine, and absolutely superb compared to a KDE-Plasma desktop (though only a touch better than Gnome).

I too have found it stable and as good or better than Win 7.

I use for that some no-name "Tupperware". And it is also good for the environment.
Because aluminium needs a big chunk of energy to get produced.
