Ah, Good Guy Valve helping us prepare for October eh?
I guess I'm out of the loop - what's in October?
Windows 10 is no longer getting updates. Forcing users to switch to 11 or run on an unsecured platform which could be vulnerable to future security flaws.
Oh DUH. I'm over here wondering if I missed some Valve release announcement lmao. I switched to Linux a few months back and just completely forgot about that ig.
If you really need to use windows, but don't like 11, you can use the LTSC version, which also has less bloat and (IIRC) is supposed to keep getting updates until 2035. It can be downloaded and activated here.
