I'll switch my windows drive to the LTSC IoT version, when this happens. The only reason I have dual boot is for a fallback, if some games make trouble. For example for whatever reason BG3 multiplayer freezes randomly on linux. Single player is fine though. So until I got that sorted out I can fall back to windows. But when even the LTSC support runs out, then that's it completely for me.

Yep. Dual booting LTSC and Linux here.
I need to get a bootloader working though. I've just been defaulting to Windows for a few months. But I want to spend more time on Linux.
