Win10 LTSC with the funny activation script gets you security updates until 2032, with no added garbage. That’s not viable for business owners, but should be fine for individuals.
That probably will be true at some point, but I use win10 LTSC as a stable platform to use apps incompatible with Linux until they have support (most notably VR). I’m also not using bleeding edge hardware.
Luckily Valve may already be solving the issue lol.
Yeah, Valve made gaming on Linux almost seamless. A few years ago I couldn’t imagine that I will be able to run almost any game on Steam without tweaks.
I installed pop os today. Really slick. Unfortunately i have a few things that aren’t linux supported and keep windows on dual boot. But oh boy, I can’t wait to give it the boot so hard.
Linux is pretty cool and exciting for me, and i don’t really get everything yet.
Congrats on partially switching to Linux! pop OS is a great choice as it is very user-friendly from what I’ve heard. It may take a while to get used to things you have to do differently, but you’ll learn by using it.
Free updates for a year in Europe (I think only Europe is for free).
Many years for “free” with IOT edition (what I do for my dual boot and my partner’s main)
As a Linux user of 25 years, I can still say not everybody can move to Linux, and not everybody can move to Mac or W11 (buy a new machine or tinker to install in old machines).
At this point win 10 is discontinued, security updates have stopped haven’t they?
I get the hate for win 11 but it’s not a solution to stay at 10. You WILL get compromised.
11, Mac, or Linux. It’s an infuriating move but you have to choose, or get pwned and get your identity stolen.

I think some applications and drivers might have issues with Win10 after a few years.

Windows 10 and have hackers steal your identity, or Windows 11 and have MS steal your identity? It’s a real Occam’s disposable razor kind of decision
You think Microsoft didn’t get your identity in Windows 10?
Well they weren’t bragging about a required 24/7 screen grabber and keystroke logger.

massgrave.dev worked for me. I’m getting updates, most recently two days ago.

That’s not really right. They are only discontinued for some editions, and only if you didn’t enable the extended security updates.
