I'm deeply sorry. If it's any consolation, it will eventually happen to everybody.

Or at least everybody that didn't see the light and adopt The Penguin... But let's leave religion to another time.

False. My machine officially isn't upgradeable to W11 cause it's too old. Also, it's possible that LTSC doesn't even suggest to upgrade.

Isn't ltsc frozen in features with only security updates or something?

Yeah, that's what I meant with my second sentence, I'm just not 100% sure there's no upgrade path.
