Pavan Davuluri says the rising cost of memory is why Windows 11 will use less RAM, with work on the memory manager, WinUI 3 and WebView2.

10 still receives free updates, LTSC will have support for some time after and IOT I think until 2030.

But Debian will work in a fucking toaster for the next forever, so there's that.

The thing is those are just security updates, most software will work for the time being, but it only been a year and some newer DX12 games already having issues with 10 unfortunately.

IoT is supported until 2032

unless your toaster is only 32 bit.

Debian 12 has support for 32 bit and security updates until 2028.

So really not reaching 2030 for that toaster, but better than any multi trillion company
