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!

Windows Vista, 7, 8, and 8.1 all had 10-year support spans like this, it's just the fact that Microsoft has slowed down releases that makes it feel shorter. You can chill on W10 LTSC until 2032 if you really want. W11 Pro will allow you to get rid of most annoying things via group policy.
If I had to go back to windows, LTSC or whatever equivalent would be the only way. Not gonna catch me using an "operating system" that reminds me of candy crush every time I open the start menu
Even then it's wild how feature-rich KDE plasma is ottb comparatively.
The only thing more pleasant than KDE's features and stability these days is how resource-efficient it is. We are well beyond the bad old KDE4 days where bugs and crashes were the norm and it was a RAM and CPU hog. Modern KDE is just a joy to use.
