I just want to keep my pre windows 10 compact taskbar & not have my oldest software become broken. If I can do that, I'll upgrade, just to stop dealing with the nagging. But, for now, I will definitely just sign up for security extension for another year. I'd consider a Linux switch, if I understood it at all. Does it support my design software (AutoCAD, Rhino, Adobe...)?

Sadly no to autocad

Nonstarter for me then. Thank you for that info!

Are you a professional, using adobe and AutoCAD for your work, for which you actually get paid?

[–] Bonus@piefed.social 1 points 4 days ago (1 children)

Yes...(?)

Then why don’t you have your boss buy you a new computer instead of dealing with a lack of update and spending money out of your own pocket?
