@gyro @be4foss @kde @NafiTheBear i think a significant amount of people are going to just not bother buying another laptop once their Win10 one sucks too much, because they're on their phones for everything these days

Well that's depressing, that gonna put us so much further away from ever making things good again

It's certainly an interesting move from the side of Microsoft. Discontinuing W10 will certainly lose them some marketshare.
