    I’m still not even sure why they decided to require TPM anyways. But yeah my computer is among the many that can’t upgrade until that’s gone. I guess it’s either that or I learn a lot more about Linux…

      At least if you switch to Linux there’s no shortage of people on the fediverse willing to answer questions.

        There should be a “Linux hotline” community where people can post whatever is stopping them from switching and get solutions

      Going the linux way can be troublesome at first, but you will be free from ms bullshit in the long run and will have your hardware lasting much longer. Unless you need something specific to windows for work, I recommend trying linux.
