Hybrid Join Azure AD - Operating Systems

Question

Hello everyone!

What are exactly the operating systems, that I can connect to Azure AD (hybrid join), by only configuration the device option in Azure Active Directory Connect (without configure GPO policy "Register domain joined computers as devices").

In some pages are information that it is Windows Server 2019, Windows Server 2016 and all version of Windows 10, but in others is only several versions of Windows 10.
