Win10 LTSC still has quite a few years left.
What's the point of staying with Windows 10? You're just pushing the problem further ahead in time. You might as well start leaning Linux now, instead of waiting til you have no other choice.
Some people just need to use Windows you know?
But if you can't run Windows 11 then you're on your own once the support for 10 stops...
Ok, but if you need to use Windows then people telling you "Just install Linux" isn't a solution.
Staying on an old and unsecure OS sure is a solution, but it's incredibly fucking stupid.
At least you could install Linux and use an old Windows version inside a VM instead of running a vulnerable system on bare metal. That way you can still use Windows when you need to.
Windows isn't any less vulnerable now than 1 week after end of support.
QEMU is para-virtualization at near native speeds and supports GPU pass through for ya vidyagames.
Needing Windows isn't just about video games
Sucks to be you then.
