I just have to do it. Im daunted by it because I literally have a barely functional grasp on software, but I know that Linux is the only real option at this point.
When the convenience of doing nothing no longer outweighs my apprehension I'll switch
Edit: how nice you guys are about this isnt helping me be lazy god damnit
Anything KDE plasma will feel familiar but kinda sci-fi fancy. Or at least it was doe me.
I got Linux Mint on my laptop a few months back. Was pretty damn simple to get set up.
Feels like Windows with a few minor inconveniences like having to learn to use pinta after using paint for like 39 years
Linux mint is always my rec for beginners. It is super simple to set up and feels familiar to them
Zorin OS is geared towards people coming frim Windows or Mac wanting to maintain UI similarity. They have a "paid" version where you just pay for tech support help installing + more desktop layouts, but the free version Zorin OS core is most popular and I'm sure the community here would be happy to help walk you through it.
If you have nvidia graphics card they have support for that during installation.
Gotta take it in stages my dude and it won’t even feel daunting once you finally do it. I procrastinated for months too lol.
Stage 1: Note down the software you need to bring with you Stage 2: Do the distro decidin’ (watch some videos, read some nerd posts, whatever) Stage 3: Check hardware support, starting with your most expensive components. Stage 4: Figure out where to look for help before you’re stuck. The hardest part is that most guides start from step 1 and you probably need step 0 so don’t be scared to ask an AI for help, they’re great for stuff like this. Stage 5: Backups! Stage 6: Set aside a whole day and do the dang thing!
