alt Hacker NewsLTSC is the “real” Windows. It’s so boring and terrific.
What I don’t understand is why they don’t make it more available. Just let people pay for it. I do not understand why they don’t.

Google and Facebook showed the way. Consumers see FREE service and it sets the market equilibrium. Retail Windows licenses were already a slim minority. Those who would buy Windows 11 LTSC for Home would be an even smaller group.

It's pretty easily available if you know where to look, and I hope they never close the free activation loophole.
For the same reason everything is moving to being ad based - because ads pay more, and because the high income users who are willing to pay to get rid of ads are the most valuable users to show ads to.
