I mean, I’m still running Windows 7 because I am avoiding the annoyances of the newer versions, and I know others who have either done similarly, or moved to Linux, to avoid them.
It does work, is probably fine, and there isn’t really an easy recommendable alternative as far as Windows go, but it also has bloat and more features involving automatic updates, DRM compliance, “security”, and sending Microsoft info, etc.
Well, the one possible recommendation for another modern version of Windows, would be Windows Server (2019 I use, but I assume 2022 is ok too). That is the professional server edition of the OS allows more control to the user, and has less customer-exploiting BS on it.
