- Windows 10 support ends on October 14, 2025, prompting users to choose between upgrading to Windows 11 or switching to alternatives like Linux and LibreOffice.

- Linux and LibreOffice offer a free, open, and privacy-friendly alternative with no licensing fees, telemetry, or vendor lock-in.
- Linux works on all PCs that ran Windows 10, extending hardware life and reducing e-waste.
- LibreOffice provides a complete office suite compatible with Microsoft formats, based on open standards (ODF).
- Migration to Linux and LibreOffice is feasible for individuals and organizations, with global support communities and professional consultants available.
- Users are encouraged to start testing Linux and LibreOffice now to prepare for the transition.
- The Document Foundation and LibreOffice support the @endof10 campaign, advocating for digital freedom.
