People who are still inclined to believe that Linux systems will stop booting next month because of secure boot rollover! Send me evidence that you have donated to a charity and, if Linux stops booting on any system after 2025-09-11, I will (your choice) either match that donation or pay you back your donation (you will need to deal with the tax consequences), up to a total of $50,000.

Current laptop has never had secure boot turned off, and also has not run Windows not-virtualized since I got my grubby fingers on it 🤷. It just works, and turning off secure boot is too much effort.

Fair. That's context which I didn't have, and in that context it's indeed more complicated.
Theoretically it's still possible to set up a shim and grub from somewhere else and then sign your own kernels, but that's way more involved than just to disable secure boot.
