Folks from the End of 10 campaign have reached out to see if the Fedora Project would like to be a part of this. This is a cross-project movement in the open source world to capitalize on the end of Windows 10 support in October 2025 with the intention to move people to Linux.

I think this is a great project for us to be part of as the campaign’s values line up with our values of Friends and Features. Friends as in we would be working with our open source friends to help our Windows 10 friends move to an OS that will remain supported. Features in that Fedora Linux will continue to support many of these devices which would otherwise lose important security patches.

I am request approval for the Marketing Team to work with the End of 10 campaign because doing so would mean that the Fedora logo will be on their website. We need to approve their use of our trademark.

Below is a link to the website. We can pass along any questions to clarify what is needed in order to approve or decline this request. Thanks for your consideration!

On the endof10.org website, they have various vendor logos, and a page of places people can go to upgrade to Linux.

It would be good to have a list on there of operating systems people can install (because if they need the endof10 website they probably need to be given the options).

So yes, I think Fedora should support endof10. I note that the website is hosted by KDE and has a number of other good orgs behind it.
