Do it! You will not miss Microslop. I’ve been running Linux for about a year now and do not miss Windows. There’s some learning to do and some things may take a little work to work right but thats being resolved more and more every day and its worth it. I run my main gaming PC on CachyOS and my media server on Mint and its just great. Will never go back to Microshit.
This is unironivally what switch my dual boot to just linux. Drive was failing. ext4 on linux handled it no hicups, windows crashed hard nevet came back.
Dude honestly I cannot recommend this enough, and to all who are in a similar position:
While you still have your main system as a fallback, get a used cheap laptop with ~8gb ram just to fuck around and try linux, install [your distro] FedoraKDE, and play around.
If a relative or friend is upgrading and gonna trash their current because the HW is choked by windows, ask to buy it for a reasonable price, cheap to you because old trash HW anyway, but a couple bucks to help them with their new purchase, win win. That HW that will no longer run windows will run linux just fine, and then you can main the laptop for a bit while you learn but still can boot into your old system to troubleshoot and also don’t have to fuck with dual booting and windows fucking with your linux or boot partitions.
