    I will likely go back to mint once Windows 10 is done. 11 is pure trash.

    The major hang up I have is gaming. I have an Nvidia card and it’s never behaved well with Linux. I also like GTAO but I will no longer be able to play it. Most of my other titles work fine.

    I don’t know what I’m going to do yet.

      I too am in a conundrum. I like the idea of Linux a lot, but pretty much all I use my laptop for is a) Excel and b) very rarely games, neither of which make sense to use Linux for.

      I’ll build a home server at some point and I think that’ll be my start.

        Have you tried Libre Office? It’s an open source Microsoft Office alternative that works pretty great. You can try it on Windows.

          In my experience people who really use excel are always going to need excel.

          Also in my experience excel runs great on Mac Laptops, which are so much better than any other laptop I’ve touched in the last 20 years. If you’ve tried their touchpads you’ll know what I mean. Total game changers for truly mobile computing working without a desk.
