This type of information, encourages me to move quickly to a linux distro of choice.

Agreed. I have already been contemplating it. When they finally brick my Windows 10 desktop I will be switching for sure.

Fedora, Steam, Bottles.

Fedora/KDE for the quality support and stability of your Linux distro, Steam for, well, Steam, and Bottles for non-Steam games, that still lets you launch those games from inside Steam.

I almost switched around the 2007 to 2010 timeframe but they got a lot better with 7 and PowerShell closed the deal for me.

I'm now working more Linux into my daily usage to get a feel for what I'd need to do if I switch, and start solving those problems now, because if they do go this way, I'm probably going to jump ship. And they've made it even easier since I can still have PowerShell and C# and .NET on Linux now!

I am planning to change/ move to Ubuntu LTS during coming summer. Currently studying at university & don't want disruptions with study activities. Compatibility issues etc.

For someone graduating in entrepreneurship, i believe Ubuntu with other open source software will be sufficient towards my main objectives at work life.
