But Linus Sex Tips said linux is bad, bro! I tried Ubuntu one time like 10 years ago and it wasn’t Windows, so now I hate Linux bro
Literally what everyone tells me: I tried it 8 years ago and it sucked (used really weird distro or Ubuntu)

Been gaming on Linux for years, currently I use Play On Linux and Steam.
I remember the days you had to compile your own wine to get something working.
And those wine fixme in the console, it felt like the game was being held together with string.
What are the names of those? I only recognize Wine (“Wine Is Not an Emulator”)
I’m super interested in running Linux, do you think it’s okay to just dump windows at once and go full Linux, or it’s better to dual boot for a while? I’ve read that dual-booting can be a bit finicky, but it’s been a while since I looked into it
You’re going to hear a lot of recommendations, but I strongly suggest going with Fedora for your first distro. It’s the least pain to get up and running with a modern, performant, up to date distro.
Ubuntu these days is its own little corner of design choices, Arch is designed to need configuration, Debian is a (purposefully) a bit slow to keep up. A lot of people say good things about Linux Mint, haven’t used it myself but have used Fedora for years (including at work) and it’s rock solid without much faffing.
I recommend Debian specifically because it’s slow to keep up, and most people just don’t need the latest features anyway. Especially if you’re new to Linux, stability is important.
It’s great for a server system but I find it less great for a desktop environment. Hardware support take longer to get to the kernel, UI improvements take longer to get to the desktop etc.
