I have a gaming pal thats not super techy, and kind of lazy, so they're still on 10.

I really doubt he will ever change to Linux (he complains if we have to play any game not in the steam library, he is not a tinkerer) but I wonder how much I need to remind him to change to either win 10 iot or maybe try Linux? Is it even a concern?

At least a migration to Windows 10 LTSC would be really useful. Not getting security updates could turn into a disaster when a new CVE targeting Windows 10 pops up. LTSC is supported until 2032
