Windows 11 LTSC - How many people here are using it?

I read this link, regarding the above, and tried it.

Have to say so far, really impressed with the smoothness, and how the GUI feels snappy.

I know it is a 90 day evaluation originally, can hopefully extend it 3x times more, for a years use, before re-install.

 

I'm not a gamer, and don't keep many personal files on W11, just need Windows box for WFH/Citrix, Office, Teams, Zoom, Adobe PDF Reader maybe even Visual Studio code.

No, running the above in a Windows VM in Linux, is not the same as Windows on bare metal, especially with web cam in Teams/Zoom/Webex.

    The LTSC edition is popular among enterprise, industrial, and specialized setups—like kiosks, dedicated workstations, and embedded systems. It's less common among general consumers, but many tech enthusiasts and IT professionals do experiment with it for stability and performance.
