Little bit off topic, sorry.

Windows 10 support ending in 2025 is really scary. Literally billions of computers are not eligible to install Windows 11 because of artificial limitations, all of these are supposed to be trashed? That would be an enormous amount of e-waste.

Realistically one or a combination of the following will happen:

  - Microsoft extends the deadline
  - There will be a paid long term support update channel, and hopefully a registry edit will enable this (happened a couple of times before)
  - Most people will continue to use it without security updates (most likely)

I guess Microsoft will agressively tell you that your OS is not safe, etc, so hopefully a single tool will exist that hides all of these messages and switches to the long term support updates.

We've been here before with Windows XP. It'll be fine.

May be and just may be, those users will then try some linux distros and realize that it's not so bad and stick with it.

Hope that will drive linux adoption a little more.

2025 will surely be the year of desktop Linux.
