    As both a Linux professional and freedom loving enthusiast that hates corporate bullshit, you bet your black ass I am.

      People like you are the reason I’m running Linux Mint on all of my PCs now, and I’ve never been happier. Keep fighting the good fight!

  What distro tho?

    If you’re coming from Windows, something that runs KDE Plasma will feel very familiar.

      I came from windows to fedora kde, no regrets so far!! Though for gaming maybe nobara is better as it comes with some stuff preinstalled/configured for gaming. I haven’t really gamed on my laptop yet.

        Hell yeah. I went with Kubuntu because I figured it would be easy for a beginner to troubleshoot eventual issues, given the amount of asked-and-answered Ubuntu queries online.

    Real talk: whichever one makes you happy. Do a little research with some search terms such as “play {game} on Linux” and see what other users are running. Then, assemble a few live disks and test-pilot a few distros.

    It’s pretty fun getting to switch out your OS so freely and once you find an interface that feels good, you just plop your ass into that seat. If you keep decent records of your configs and such, you might find yourself starting over again multiple times while you “try to get it right.” That’s not failure, that’s just advancing your skills and making yourself happy.

    Linux can be as simple or as advanced as you want it to be.

    Bazzite use the home theatre version for a console like experience. Or go with the desktop versions Gnome and KDE both work really well however the emudeck devs have programmed it to work with KDE if you wanted to use that go with KDE.

      I just switched to Bazzite on my Legion Go and LOVE the freedom from Microsoft.

    Anything but Ubuntu will be perfectly fine. There really isn’t that much difference between the major distributions.

      Anything including Ubuntu will be perfectly fine.

        No snaps are fucking tragic and should be avoided at all costs.

        It was nice to have someone take this stand and I fully support this. People switching over to Linux already have their own stuff to deal with and need time to accustom to their new environment, and forcing them to embibe ‘FOSS’ philosophy and other strong opinions as held by others in Linux communities is only going to turn them off.

      Package manager choice is pretty important, and for that I always recommend debian-based for a pc for a new Linux user. APT is just so good.
