Redmond issued an official notice that, as of May 12, 2020, the error-prone "Update of the Damned" will stop receiving upgrades, and holdouts still using the operating system version, for some reason, will be advised to move to at least the November 2019 build of the operating system.

Some had troubles, some avoided trouble, some are going to cheer!

I don't see the issue. People who deliberately decide to stay on an old buggy software version know that the newest bug fixes will not arrive. That is true for all software. That Microsoft had the courtesy to backport fixes to this older version is nice, but if they now ask to upgrade for continued support is a logical step in my opinion.

I'll listen to Redmond when they address known issues which require fixing. Interestingly no official Microsoft person offers comments on problems only helpful volunteers who to try to help solve those problems.
