Nothing's stopping you from nuking your Windows install and installing some Linux distro though, at least on a normal PC. Surface products tend to be more locked to Windows though. I haven't ran Windows as a main OS in years and don't plan on going back, and Windows has gotten so user-hostile lately that I don't even trust it enough to dual-boot it anymore, LTSC included.
(so far LTSC has dodged most of MS' worst atrocities but it's only a matter of time before that version starts getting compromised in some way too, so I don't trust Windows outside of a VM, period, anymore, at least if I virtualize it, whatever stunts it may pull are isolated to that VM and won't affect the host generally)
