I have a Surface Pro (2017), which comes with W10 Pro by default, and I can confidently say that Windows 10 Pro still nags the user.

The most prominent example is the full screen nags that, although can be skipped, use dark patterns to trick the user into changing settings.

Since I use windows with a local user account, instead of a Microsoft account, it often nags me to switch. Even when using a Microsoft account to sign in it still nags to set a pin to log in, instead of just using a password. I haven't found any setting to disable these permanently.

Windows 10 LTSC is probably the best option, although I haven't tried it personally.
