According to Microsoft (and you know you can trust them...), Windows 10 is active (or used) on 700 million devices. 700 million devices, and none of mine. I like this idea of being a resistant over an OS being pushed down your throat.
I envy the time when it's clear for everyone in the software industry that this is no longer possible to deploy any independant software on Windows 10 anymore and that, as a result, there is no reason for anyone to use Windows at all. After all, Windows is used because version after version it remains backwards compatible, which means the software you have invested in still works and that the workflow and work process isn't disrupted. That's what made Windows Windows.
This is no longer applicable. I have appreciated how much, those last 10 years, some potential customers have notified me of the troubles they would get involved with for just daring to double-click on my software installer, not to mention the countless anti-virus false positives that have disrupted my business (none of those anti-virus vendors notifying me by the way that they had disrupted my software).
I think independant software vendors are pushed towards no longer being in this industry or at least moving towards the software as a service industry, i.e. software running on servers rather than clients.
It's a little bit ironic of course that Microsoft is pushing towards this, because I believe Microsoft disrupted IBM PC's software for this exact reason back then. IBM was the synonym to centralized software and Microsoft came along with this Windows thing that all of a sudden would let independant vendors code and then distribute software that their customers could run on their computers.
When this happens, customers will only need a web browser to render the client part of the software running on servers, and that will be the end of Windows as we know it.
Until then, I would caution against using Windows 10 since that's an OS deliberately designed against you.
