Wouldn't it be nice if you could just keep using Windows 10 forever, and get security updates for free?
For reference: Debian 6 which was the current release of Debian at the time Windows 10 was released hasn't received official security patches 2016, CentOS 6.6 stopped receiving them 2022. Mac OS X Yosemite latest update was released 2017...
Yeah and? Debian is free, you can just upgrade to the newer version without paying a thing.
It seems worthwhile to set realistic expectations.
