Trop forts chez #microsoft 💪
Des années que je vante les mérites de #linux auprès de madame sans soulever plus d'intérêt que ça.

Il a suffi d'un message plein écran au démarrage disant globalement :
- fin du support de #windows10 en octobre prochain
- votre ordinateur n'est pas compatible avec #windows11
- achetez un nouvel ordinateur
Et là madame qui me demande de lui installer linux sur son PC, ce qui je me suis empressé de faire.

Des rois de la stratégie chez Microsoft 🤣

Il me reste plus qu'à assurer l'assistance technique 👷

Reason 10 To Choose Linux 😍

Linux 🐧 is more private, by default

Own and control your data!

Your operating system won't record your key strokes or dictation, collect lists of devices and their Wi-Fi details, or webcams, printers and anything else plugged in and then send that back to Big Tech HQ.

It's possible to avoid data collection altogether, from the start.

With #Linux YOU decide how to share YOUR data.

Flyer for the End Of 10 campaign. The background colors are a mix of blue and purple, with blobs of green on the edges.

Tux, the penguin mascot of Linux, is visible in the lower right corner.

Top left: End Of 10 logo of four boxes falling over. Under a QR code is the website URL https://endof10.org.

Top right: The title "End Of 10: FOSS Instead Of Toss".

The text on the flyer reads:

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

If you bought your computer after 2010, there's likely no reason to throw it out. By installing an up-to-date Linux operating system, you can keep using it for years to come!

Installing an operating system may sound hard, but you don't have to do it alone. There may be some people in your area who have volunteers to help! Scan the QR code or visit the URL above to find someone to help upgrade your system to Linux.

Five Reasons To Upgrade To Linux:
1. No New Hardware or License Costs
2. Enhanced Privacy
3. Good for the Planet
4. Community and Pro Support
5. Better User Control
