Nah, fuck off. The cloud is a place you don't have any control over. I remember getting angry when Windows 10 LTSC got an update that added an online backup system. I do not pay them to take a copy of my important work and documents, they should pay me for that privileges. Furthermore, it's an absolute disgrace to see that on an LTSC copy to begin with, it's meant to be the barebones OS that you purchase at a premium for minimal updates and changes as well as extended service lifespan.

Fuck OneDrive, I store locally and I make local backups. What I own is mine without exception.

Get windows 10 iot ltsc, it won't do that

Press X to Doubt
Eww, Internet of Things, so Gross, why don't I just install a real bridge next to the drawbridge over the moat around my house? Welcome all the attackers in!

I didn't think this would be controversial, but apparently it isn't widely known. Win10 Iot Enterprise LTSC 2021 is a version that gets security support until 2032 but will not receive feature updates, ads or any other those things. It's essentially what windows should be.

Here is my source: https://massgrave.dev/windows_ltsc_links.html

That's exactly the same as what Windows 10 LTSC claims to be, except with IoT included. They're virtually the same product.

[–] fallingcats@discuss.tchncs.de 1 points 10 months ago (1 children)

Nope:

Windows Update - Iot is supported till 2032 and Non-Iot is supported till 2027. Conclusion, Iot LTSC is better.

[–] doctorcrimson@lemmy.world 1 points 10 months ago

I went ahead and checked and yes the IoT service date for LTSC Enterprise 2021 is further out by about 5 years, but it's a but of a stretch to say that makes it "better" given the added unnecessary vulnerabilities.
