Support for Windows 10 ends on October 14, 2025. Microsoft wants you to buy a new computer. But what if you could make your current one fast and secure again?

By installing an up-to-date Linux operating system you can keep using it for years to come.

Note: The campaign does not recommend any particular distro. That said, we will be promoting posts by various FOSS communities doing outreach in the context of the End Of 10 campaign.

Diese wissen eben, was gut und sicher nutzbar ist :)

Unter allen Computer-Nutzenden liegt die Verbreitung weltweit bei ~4% - Tendenz steigend.

@gerdesj @gnome I found an Ubuntu 22.04 derivative that emulates different desktops. Zorin is based in IE and very actively supported. It's running quite happily on an old T540 with and SSD and 16G of memory I just had laying around.

I've started a journey the last few days to convert all my personal devices to consumer Linux and more secure phone OS options. I'm done having AI slop shoved in my face, privacy concerns and Microsoft Recall announced was the last straw. #enshittification It's been a while since I've played around with consumer Linux and I'm pretty surprised how far it's come. #linux #privacy

I have a PC that came preloaded with 10.

It is over 5 years old now. It still has not seen Linux yet, but that is because it has not seen power.

Just for spite, I wiil wait until after the 10 EOL before I install Debian.

End of 10

@elementary @Endof10 Inherited an older gaming rig from my son. Despite excellent hardware, MS has deemed it ineligible for upgrade to w11. It is now rockin Linux Mint and is great for games! No windows or macOS in my personal compute for the last year, after 20 years of using Linux as a second OS. #endof10
@Endof10 surely banners with bus timetables in my city use linux as once i saw one in bootloop with beautiful dmesg spam…

"Wir beschäftigen uns mit der Frage, wie alle Menschen in Deutschland die digitalen Entwicklungen besser verstehen und von ihnen profitieren können. Statt nur in Talkshows oder in Diskussionsrunden mit Expertinnen und Experten über eine wünschenswerte Zukunft zu diskutieren, möchten wir Foren eröffnen, an denen alle teilnehmen können. Auf lokaler Ebene wird die #Digitalisierung ein Teil der Lebenswirklichkeit der Menschen, hier müssen wir sie diskutieren und erlebbar machen." 🤔

Irgendwie schade das #endof10 nicht beim #Digitaltag dabei ist, oder?🤔

Das '#Fediverse hat es auch nicht auf die Website geschafft, dafür die anderen bekannten Plattformen.🤔

Thanks!

@nextcloud Didn't know Germany had a Blauer Engel certification Curiously, there is a film named Der blaue Engel with Marlene Dietrich in it. Der blaue Engel ("The Blue Angel" in English) is the name of a cabaret, with Marlene Dietrich playing a performer with the stage name Lola Lola who causes the downfall of Immanuel Rath, who teaches unruly students at a nearby school.

Random side tangent

@hen @nextcloud The award will seem like a "side tangent" if you have ever seen that film!
@bzdev @hen adding to the watchlist ✍️
@nextcloud that's awesome! Congratulations!
P. S. You know what else is awesome? Alt text!
@hello thanks! Alt text — true, and we will keep that in mind!

@nextcloud

Congratulations!

In 2001, I was tasked with giving the first 64-bit x86-based computer the ability to adjust ("margin") its internally-regulated voltages, to optimize power consumption as its work loads varied.

I'm glad to see continuing interest and work toward power efficiency in computing!

@johnlogic thanks! this is a big moment for all of us! 💙
