It has literally always, almost, happened shortly before every Windows EOL, the product is more popular than the new version.

Windows 10 being more popular at this point isn't surprising it's more popular than Windows 10 it's expected. People always hate change when they have a working product.

This argument keeps showing so much technical ignorance.

Windows 10 is not going to "die" this year. It will continue to work fine for many years AND be supported by 3rd party software for many years.

This week, I updated a couple of very old Windows 8.1 tablets to 10. 8.1 was still running fine, but after 10 years I figured it was time to update. One is a Lenovo 8" tablet with 2 GB RAM, 4 Core Intel Atom and 64GB storage. The other is a much better Dell 10" with 8GB RAM, Intel 4 Core M-5Y71 and 256GB storage.

Yes, both are antiques at this point. Needless to say the Lenovo is slow but usable. The Dell runs fine.
