I'm curious what this community thinks about these two LTSC versions, so that I can see if there are any issues related to either customization, bugs, or lack of support between the two. I've been thinking about reinstalling Windows 10 and going for LTSB 2016 instead of LTSC 2019 due to all of the 1809 glitches that are annoying, which are mostly hindering the customization options (no "none" cursor, which defaults to the last used cursor scheme instead, the color intensity slider in Control Panel being broken, and the automatic color giving you a much darker accent color than intended).

Feel free to also just talk about regular Windows 10 1507 and 1607 in general, though I'm just personally gonna pick the LTSB edition of these either way.
Also, I do like going for an XP/Longhorn/Vista/7 look that I can switch at any time I want on my PCs. ::)

If you know how, you may attempt to patch a mod to maybe work on 1607 by removing some function hooks for whose the functions do not exist in 1607. Like that, I've gotten Aerexplorer/old tray mods working on 1703. If someone is interested, I could attempt to write about it here.

I spent the last two months of my life testing windows10 versions since this OS have been reeplaced already by 11.
My goal was to find the most efficient/less resources usage/ best performance for a really slow/weak computer.

After all my tests from 1507 to 22 I would recomend 1607 without doubts and 1507 as second option. In general I see that versions beyond 1607 contains any kind of spyware that makes your HD always buys in the background.. maybe digging for something.. who knows. No, thats not the indexing service.... , looks like some kind of digger to collect info that works in conjuntion with the M$ telemetry.
Personally I would recomend stripped versions from LiteOS if you can live without the removed stuff. They are very clean of M$ garnage and they creator knows how to strip the OS without broke it (IMO)
