I'm still using Windows 10 on my personal computer. Oh I'll probably have to upgrade someday, some game or other program will come out with exclusivity of some kind and I'll eventually install Windows 11. But for the most part, I don't want to fuck with it, everything works and I really just don't want the hassle.

Running Linux Mint on an old laptop, mostly because it's too old to decently run Windows 10. Don't use it for much, mostly troubleshooting things.

At work the laptops are Windows 10 and I don't think there's a push to update. Of course all the servers are Redhat Enterprise Linux, and that's where the majority of my work takes place.

So actually companies using RHEL! I only know of the giants like Meta leeching on CentOS, which drives me nuts.

Meta uses CentOS but they aren't leeches. They contribute a ton to CentOS, EPEL, and further upstream in Fedora and in individual software projects.
