There seems to be an understanding that the average user is going to switch from windows 10 at EOL. I’m quite confident most personal devices will run it until it stops working flat out. Your average PC user has no concern about security vulnerabilities until they’re exploited in a way that actually breaks the functionality of the thing.

A migration to to Linux will be very delayed. Like months or years. In lots of cases probably long enough that people will be shopping for new hardware anyways by the time they have to decide on a new OS.
