    Windows 10 LTSC IoT is supported til the end of 2031, maybe 2032 will be the year I finally switch.

      If you’re the type of person that can acquire and run LTSC, aren’t you exactly the kind of person that has the ability to switch to Linux?

        I’ve tried several times over the years, I always run into too many issues before I just give up because USB aren’t recognizing things or it won’t boot or it won’t run some specific software after 2 hours of trying to fix it. My last attempt on a dev laptop in 2022 lasted the longest, Maybe it’ll be sorted out in 2032 though.

          Of course, there are always small issues that can make it a little harder. When most hardware is designed first and exclusively to run Windows, there will always be issues to be resolved.

          I made a mistake though. You never advocated for anyone else to take the LTSC route, and that’s that I incorrectly read out of your message. My apologies. I usually take issue with people saying that’s a solution for other people. You never advocated that. Sorry.
