Should I switch to Linux? (alien.top)

Been a long time Windows user but with each Windows version, I hate it more. So bloated and locked in. I saw that mint is a good beginner distribution but its not supported by framework. Is Ubuntu really different from Windows with a higher learning curve?

Talk me out of wasting hours to get linux working when Windows works out-of-the-box

If you are gonna install Linux and want stability go for Ubuntu LTS in the guide. Another alternative is 23.10. Great driver support.

23.10 is vastly improved over LTS Ubuntu
