And this is why I use the LTSC version and disable updates. Yes, my system isn’t as secure, but considering the usual attack vectors have moved more towards social engineering lately, being free of Microsoft’s nonsense outweighs the outdated security in my view.

This is only for Home version and not the Pro version of windows
Me with Rufus: “You cannot stop me.”
They really want to turn Windows into iOS. All apps form the Microsoft store, locked bootloader.

And this is why I use the LTSC version and disable updates. Yes, my system isn’t as secure, but considering the usual attack vectors have moved more towards social engineering lately, being free of Microsoft’s nonsense outweighs the outdated security in my view.
And the enshittification will continue until they have true competition.
