I'm currently on Win11 but I'm getting that familiar Linux itch and want to dual boot a while again. I tend to gravitate towards Ubuntu simply because it's so big and well supported by most things.

I've run Arch in the past but I've gotten too old and lazy for that if I'd be completely honest. I have played with manjaro and endeavour though.. and opensuse tumbleweed, rolling is kind of nice.

Not sure what I'd try out first this time so I figured I'd get some inspiration from you guys!

It's on a laptop. I do have an external usb that I have linux installed on but it feels like a hassle to connect/disconnect every time I need to switch OS. Maybe it could've been worth staying on it though?

I actually usually run linux on a USB SSD myself haha, but I am on a desktop so I can just leave it there. For you that's definitely a hassle.

I mean it works I suppose, at least when I'm at my desk at home which is where I mostly use it, but still. It's not quite optimal. :)
