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.

Previously I ran Win 10 IoT LTSC, with a bunch of scripts from https://privacy.sexy/

I believe most things will work about the same in Win 11. Be sure not to disable anything you might actually need as it can be hard to diagnose.
