KDE creates a safe haven for Windows 10 exiles.

In the context of the @Endof10 campaign, we have created a new "for" page, this time "for Windows 10 exiles":

https://kde.org/for/w10-exiles/

In it we explain how Linux with Plasma can help users escape the deranged cycle of having to buy a new computer every time Microsoft force-upgrades their operating system.

Lol. I was a KDE/Kubuntu user for several years & KDE on OpenSUSE before that. I may even have had KDE running under CDE on an UltraSPARC BITD.

Then the powers that be decided that KDE4 was "better" for some value of better that I could never figure out. Stepped back to CentOS w/GNOME before I found the Trinity fork. Used that until I retired. Most of my typing is on MacOS now.

My W10 box will remain at W10 until the 4-5 things that I need W10 for force me to change.
