That's a hard argument to justify given that Windows 10 will no longer be supported before the end of this year.

Microsoft currently says:

> Windows 10 will reach end of support on October 14, 2025. [1]

So we've got a year and change. And they may push it back, like they pushed back EoL when people didn't upgrade from XP or 7.

Who cares about "support" when Windows 11 is currently supported and they still do shit like this?

Perhaps "supported" should really mean "controlled by Microsoft".

Agree. The problem being whatever support they provide (which means the updates) must be good enough so that people want it. And IMO I don't see the support being a good thing in Win 11 or recent. I currently stay on Windows due to better program support (some services provide less to none for Linux) and gaming (online games using anti-cheat not working on Linux). Hope Linux within a decade would gain enough market share & support to solve this pain points.
