So, I had a thought this morning ~ for those of us running a Windows 10 machine like myself (picked up a Lenovo Thinkpad T470s Core i5-6300 2.40Ghz 8GB off Ebay w/W10 Pro.) that will not run Windows 11, what is your strategy after Version 22H2 (Oct 14, 2025) becomes EOL?

I will probably look at Ubuntu at that time and see if it will run well. I have Mint on a Chromebook that runs well. As an aside, I find Chromebooks and Thinkpads provide good bang for my buck as I use a Chromebook around the house and I'm saving the life on my primary machine.

Thoughts on what others will do are welcomed.
