Microsoft has announced that Windows 10 support will end in a few months, meaning nearly half of Steam users will be forced to upgrade.

That sucks. About 5 years ago I put ideology one peg above entertainment and just avoid games that use Windows only anti-cheat, I don’t get to play the biggest releases but there are literally thousands of other games that work perfectly and are just as fun.

If I were you I would keep my Windows gaming machine as a single function device. Play games, get all the MS updates and 3rd party spyware, don’t let it touch anything you want to keep private or safe.

Yea once w10 reaches eol I’m gone. If my games decide to fix linux by then, then all is well. If not, oh well.
