Support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. If you bought your computer after 2010, there’s most likely no reason to throw it out. By just installing an up-to-date Linux operating system you can keep using it for years to come.
Installing an operating system may sound difficult, but you don’t have to do it alone. With any luck, there are people in your area ready to help! Find someone to help you.
The same could be said about Windows. It’s a bad idea for people to use Windows without installing it themselves because they are dependent on MS and the OEM that installed it for them.
Better that they’d be dependent on someone that cares about them than soulless corps that just want to exploit them.
Honestly they shouldn’t get a Windows device either. Get a tablet since chances are they don’t need anything more.
The same could be said about iOS and Android. We just gotta help people when we can.
