Microsoft is being sued by a man who feels cheated by the current plans to sunset Windows 10. He makes some good points, but I doubt he’ll win.

Looking into switching to Linux…
May you run into a nerd with a Ventoy USB full of beginner-friendly distros in their back pocket to help you along your journey.
There are at least two of us out there, I’m sure of it.
I keep a ventoy USB in my backpack at all times.
Currently I have mint popos endeavour cachy bazzite fedora opensuse. I’m thinking of adding a few more. Maybe add nixOS and Debian to the mix.
And a pack of condoms ?
What, for people to wear on their fingers to keep oil off or something?
Or maybe just put Arch in that Ventoy USB. (Yeah, yeah, I use Arch, btw.)
Bought an iodd a few months ago to do my part 🫡
I keep a keychain in my backpack for jusr such an ocassion!
Do it.
If you have an old laptop, put Linux on it, get comfortable using it. Then when you are ready, make the full switch on your main computer.
I have used Linux for a few years mostly on my servers, but that’s what I did to get used to the desktop experience. I setup a second SSD to have the option of dual booting if I needed it. That was back in March and I haven’t booted into Windows once.
Seconded on do it. It’s a lot better than it was even a few years ago.
I’m the same, I’ve got a perfectly good desktop machine that isn’t Win11 compatible, as well as a Windows 11 laptop.
Most of what I do on the desktop is browser based, and I have the laptop in case I brick the desktop, so nothing to lose by trying.
Ironically, if I’d been able to upgrade to 11, there’s no way I’d bother with any of this.
You can upgrade to 11, nothibgs stopping you.
But it is far smarter to quit with the abusive, and spying, environment.
Linux is easy and works.
