Do you mouthbreathers even understand the purpose of LTSC? Do you just ignore the meaning of the IoT part? The point is that it’s a distro for devices that shouldn’t be receiving updates or support beyond what’s absolutely necessary, which is security updates, such as sensitive medical or laboratory computers running obscure software you have never heard of. Now that W10 support is ended, what will happen within the next 6 years is that the software you run and drivers you use for your daily driver use case will stop working, because vendors and devs aren’t working on them anymore.

Your PC is not a lab instrument.
Just install Linux for Christ’s sake. It’s less tinkertrannying and has better support than either W10 or W11 you retarded brown subhumans. Kill yourselves unironically.

I haven't updated my drivers in 6 years. I don't need or want feature updates. I just need the security ones and microshit have already proven that those brick systems too. So why the fuck do I want to update anything if it's currently working?

LTSC is just a crap free version of Windows that doesn't force "upgrades" on you with a ton of bloat and forced services. If any software or drivers aren't supported anymore you can just upgrade to a newer LTSC version. In the meantime you can be sure your OS doesn't change significantly against your will.

Sure, GNU/Linux is much more private and gives you a lot of freedom, but it's not a viable option for everybody.

Wrong
For starters you rely on the internet to get packages, much like (You) rely on the internet to download your gay little videogames, executables you get from random websites and anime porn. If whatever service you use to get such things goes down, you're still left with a system that works and can change its state, just not use said unavailable channels to change state. Having a service like this go down isn't exclusive to Linux, you absolute cretin, but I know you have no idea on how Linux works since you seem to think packages live on Github instead of a dozen mirrors all around the globe for different distros

Microsoft is actively losing the younger generations because of this bullshit. I've messed around with Linux in the past but for me it was more. Just kind of a curiosity than a viable alternative, but I was hanging out with my cousin the other day who is 20 and he and all of his friends at college are running Linux mint on their laptops. Like full time they're running Linux for gaming for school work for everything it's wild.
