In my experience, win 8.1 < win 10: less CPU and ram hogging, less telemetry, and overall less frustration. Although, yeah, you'd have to replace metro crap with something less tablet-oriented.

Alternatively, server editions are OK.

Well, duh. Kinda funny how windows server is a better desktop windows than a regular windows. Basically, you get less candy_crush-like crap plus only security updates, as far as I remember. But yeah, there are different unnecessary features (unless you're in the corporate environment, ofc)

Although, I'm not really sure nowadays since I haven't used windows for a few years 😅
