Security: ChromeOS on your old PC

If you have a Windows 10 PC and it doesn't support Windows 11, you either have to buy a new computer (expensive), workaround the restrictions and install Windows 11 anyway (works until Microsoft breaks it), or use another operating system on that older PC (my suggestion).

You have two options when it comes to that: Linux and ChromeOS. Both are very secure, and reasonable options. For privacy, Linux is the better option, but there is a bigger learning curve. ChromeOS should be considered as an easier to use system to extend the life of an older PC.

ChromeOS isn't as private as Linux, because Google gets your information. If you already use Google Search and Gmail, they have your information already, so it's not that much of a deal insofar as privacy is concerned.

My Streaming Life keeps security as the forefront, and keeps budget in mind always. Extending the life of an old computer via ChromeOS may be a good option for you.
