LTSC is good for a machine with a dedicated purpose. My DJ laptop runs LTSC, for example. But I wouldn't suggest using it as your main OS unless you don't mind reinstalling Windows every year (I don't, but some people do).

11 really isn't that bad once you work around the bullshit. Use StartAllBack to restore the old Start Menu and position the taskbar vertically, and SoundSwitch to keep it from changing your default audio device every time you plug something in. Once you install those two apps, dare I say that 11 is better than 10.

Hell, it's worth it alone for its considerably better HDR experience. In 10 you had to constantly fiddle with it, or even turn it off altogether when viewing non-HDR content, if you didn't want a washed-out image. In 11, just enable AutoHDR, change your monitor settings to automatically tone map (instead of using HGiG), and forget about it. You'll never have to mess with settings, toggling things, or calibrations ever again to get a good HDR and SDR image, even in games. It just works.
