New PC build -- which version of Windows 11? LTSC, IoT, ?? (lemmy.dbzer0.com)

I'll soon be assembling a new PC and I need to figure out which version of Win 11 to use. I've not been able to find a good discussion of using IoT or LTSC for a "daily driver" gaming and productivity PC.

I'll want to make use of a lot of Windows features like virtualization, the ability to run Android apps, and the Linux subsystem. I don't need all the new feature updates immediately, but I also don't want to be running an antique OS... Just a debloated one.

If you've navigated these waters I would love to hear about your experience.

LTSC is extremely feasible for gaming and productivity. As Codilingus already said, you can get the ISO and activation from MASSGRAVE's site.

Depending on your requirements, you'll probably quickly figure out you need MS Store for one thing or another (the inconvenience of having pretty much everything removed) so you'll need a tool like this to install the store and, you can use Chris Titus' Wintool to turn off the spyware. It also has a program downloader built in with a long list of useful software to help speed up your initial setup process.

Thanks to the two of you I tried 11 IoT LTSC and it's been great. I had no problems adding the store as you suggested. The Titus tool I already knew, it delivers.

Thanks again for encouraging me to give it a try.
