Chat is a text only community for casual conversation, please keep shitposting to the absolute minimum. This is intended to be a separate space from c/chapotraphouse or the daily megathread. Chat does this by being a long-form community where topics will remain from day to day unlike the megathread, and it is distinct from c/chapotraphouse in that we ask you to engage in this community in a genuine way. Please keep shitposting, bits, and irony to a minimum.
As with all communities posts need to abide by the code of conduct, additionally moderators will remove any posts or comments deemed to be inappropriate.
Thank you and happy chatting!

There’s people who already commented how to avoid the update by changing to ltsc or just not doing it. But how will you get security updates?
There’s a company called 0patch that makes em. They don’t even need a restart to apply like the ms ones do. It’s ~$25 a year.
The alternative is to switch to a mac, which isn’t a bad choice tbh once you can tank the buy-in.
Op said they don’t wanna switch to Linux and there’s a bunch of good reasons they might have. I keep a mac for several reasons and one is being able to “be normal” when it’s important.
If you gotta get away from windows and can’t build your life around what Linux does and doesn’t allow then going the apple route is a viable choice.
