The openSUSE [distrowatch.com] project is encouraging [opensuse.org] people who currently run Windows 10 and whose computers are not compatible with Windows 11 to consider a migration to Linux instead of throwing out their old hardware. "The openSUSE Project's Upgrade to Freedom campaign urges people to extend the life of their device rather than becoming e-waste. Since millions of Windows 10 users may believe their devices will become useless and contribute to the waste of fully functional devices, installing a Linux operating systems like openSUSE or another Linux distribution is more reasonable.

A new initiative called End of 10 [endof10.org] has launched that shares the purposes and origin of openSUSE's Upgrade to Freedom efforts. As the End of 10 initiative also intends to help people extend the life of devices that would otherwise become e-waste, rather than dilute the messaging and narrative, members of openSUSE marketing have decided to transition the Upgrade to Freedom [opensuse.org] campaign to joining the End of 10 initiative."
