Mar 15, 2014 at 12:25 comment added Ramhound @trysis - windows tag exists for that reason. A question about Windows is either specific to that version or applies to multiple versions. There are not even 5 versions of Windows that Microsoft currently sells.
Mar 12, 2014 at 3:53 comment added trysis I meant the same idea being global. Not necessarily operating systems, just anything that could be separated like that.
Mar 12, 2014 at 1:11 comment added allquixotic It does not make sense to make it "global". Pets.stackexchange or mechanics.stackexchange will basically never have any on-topic questions about software, so these tags will never exist there, and any conceivable feature asking "what is your operating system?" will never be useful there. You'd have to somehow fork the SE codebase and make a special version of it for StackOverflow, SU, SF, WA, and the other software sites that support more than one operating system. On the other hand, it's not really useful for Ask Ubuntu, because if you aren't running Ubuntu, it's kinda off-topic.
Mar 11, 2014 at 23:49 comment added trysis Yes, but there are only 5 tags there, and I think some questions could apply to more than 5 Windows versions. Plus, I was also thinking other StackExchanges, that don't have as much space for OS's.
