Coming on Lemmy and complaining because there are too many Linux users is like going in to a brothel and complaining that there are too many hookers (lemmy.ml)

Just keep in mind you have until Oct of next year to migrate. Either go for Windows 11, Linux or Mac OS.

You can't safely stay. Don't sacrifice your own security because of some personal vendetta against Microsoft. Windows 11 is very similar to Windows 10.

Thanks for the heads up. I don't really have a vendetta against Microsoft, I just hear a lot of moaning over how bad 11 is and have been hesitant to upgrade thus far. Even if it isn't great, I managed to strip 10 down in a way that it closely resembles 7, so I'm sure I can do something similar.

You know what else resembles windows 7?

A default install of Linux Mint!
