How long will we be able to use 10 after EOL? Would companies immediately stop updating their apps?
Upgrade to Linux! :D
That's what i did and with very few issues (especially compared to what i had with Windows) I've not regretted it at all
At the Office it's my employers problem and at home Mint doesn't give AF about Windows 11.
If epic didn't suck ass and actually wanted to support EAC on Linux I already would have switched.
Windows 10 keeps turning that stupid news feed back on on my taskbar, too.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
Reddit user Woopinah9 spotted a notification “while in the middle of working,” where Microsoft thanks Windows 10 “customers” for their loyalty with a full-screen message and then explains the end of support date.
“Your PC is not eligible to upgrade to Windows 11, but it will continue to receive Windows 10 fixes and security updates until support ends on October 14th, 2025,” reads Microsoft’s message.
The options to dismiss the full-screen interruption include “learn more” and “remind me later” buttons, which suggests that this prompt might appear more than once.
Surprisingly, Microsoft’s full-screen prompt doesn’t directly mention that consumers will be able to continue securely using the operating system beyond October 14th, 2025, if they’re willing to pay.
Microsoft revealed last week that it will cost businesses $61 per device for the first year of Extended Security Updates (ESU) for Windows 10.
Hopefully, non-business users of Windows 10 will get similar discounts, but Microsoft says it will share details “at a later date.”
The original article contains 528 words, the summary contains 163 words. Saved 69%. I'm a bot and I'm open source!
Well sadly my laptop is not supported for update 🤷
I'll wait for it to day and get a proper Linux supported device:)
Till then, I'll fly my w10
The cycle continues
Someone should let Microsoft know that they only have 18 months left to put out an OS that isn't a complete dumpster fire. Right now, I would take Vista over 11.
