That's where I'm at. Even before this, I refused to install Windows 11. I daily drive Linux, and I only boot into Windows on occasion when there are games that I can't get to work with Proton. When Windows 10 goes EOL, I will just run it unpatched for those occasional uses. When Steam stops supporting it, I will stop using Windows altogether. I must say it's quite refreshing to not have to deal with Microsoft's user-hostile nonsense. No shenanigans with required accounts, no ads, no preinstalled bloatware. My OS is made to serve me and my needs, not to eke out extra profits. Ironic that the free option is better at serving me than the paid option, these days. The sad part is, I like Windows. Or at least I used to. I've never been a "Windoze sucks, I hate M$" guy. Time was that it was genuinely a well made operating system that did its job well and got out of the way. But those days are long since gone. I hope that someday Microsoft gets their act together and starts caring about making a quality product again.
