As a power user, pay for Windows 10 pro. It's not free like regular windows 10, but "look ma, no ads!"

My Windows 10 Pro VMs always had some Candy Crush bullshit in the start menu and happily displayed celebrity news every time I had to open Edge (mostly to download Firefox).

Right, candy crush and edge are still there, but it's not like the ads in explorer.

Windows 10 Pro was free if you upgraded from a Pro edition.
