You don't need LTSC, you just need Windows Pro versions.
Lots of people bitch and moan about Windows problems that only exist because they buy the cheaper "Home" or whatever license and complain that Microsoft made different product decisions for average users than for people who have bought the explicitly labeled "power user" version.
Remember, the average computer user IS a hostile entity to Microsoft. They will delete System32 and then cry that Windows is so bad! They will turn off all antivirus software and bitch about Windows being insecure. They refuse to update and then get pwned and complain. They blame Microsoft for all the BSODs that were caused by Nvidia's drivers during the Vista era. They will follow a step by step procedure in some random forum from ten years ago that tells them to turn off their entire swap file despite running with lots of RAM and spinning rust and then bitch that Windows is slow.
Don't expect Microsoft to not deal with morons using their software. Buy the Pro versions if you don't want the version meant for morons.
I shouldn’t need to spend this much time and energy turning off AI rubbish, bypassing cloud features, or knobbling telemetry and ads because some shitbag at Microsoft decided this was a good way of getting a promotion.
My computer is supposed to work for me, not the other way around.
