I want to make the swtich, and I have been looking into it, seems pretty simple.

But then I read the comment section in any post on linux, and they talk about kernals and other super techinal stuff.

Any day now tho, ill take the plunge

Edit: never had so many responses before, guess linux is the magic word. Even if i didnt respond to your replies, i appreciate and have updooted them.

Linux Mint with Cinnamon is the easy one with good, widespread adoption. Been good for me.

Unfortunately:

  • outdated packages as hell
  • X11 causes performance issues and low frame rate when having more than 1 monitor
  • KDE is just more sexy but hey, it is what it is
  • all Ubuntu based distros have problem with the new kernel and compatibility problem with virtualbox?
  • outdated stuff, again

Apart from that, yea, works pretty well, I use it on my desktop
