No, they're not going to be fixed or fully avoidable and you want to stay on Windows 10 or just go to Linux.

Windows 10 is genuinely better in every single way and it is incredibly sad.

And also, there is no "too late" as you can always upgrade whenever you want.

Thank you. Just the news of windows 8 being unsupported got me thinking.

And i've never touched linux. I might have to take the plunge and learn once win 10 becomes obsolete and unsupported.

Linux is not much different depending on what you do, all I recommend is stay away from distrobutions that use snap packages and the like. Linux Mint is a common recommendation.

I mainly use it for gaming. Whether it be triple a games. Or indy niche gaming. Plus like the ability to run like anything.

I heard there was a better alternative than linux mint for amd cpu/gpu users, but really i havent looked into anything for linux yet.

If you don't mind not being able to run games with anticheat other than easy anticheat you're good, people recommend "Nobara" as a gaming distribution but I always think tailored distros are a bit silly as something like Mint can do all of it anyways.

There's not much you can't do on Linux nowadays anymore thanks to Proton.
