LTSC is the route I took as well for awhile. But went back to retail because I wanted to play Game Pass and there were some weird things going on. But it was great for my cheap homemade NAS.

that is… until I switched both computers to Linux last year.

But completely agree - if you need/want to stay in Windows, LTSC was very clean.

Enterprise is close (no candy crush etc), but LTSC still rules supreme
