I just switched to Linux with PopOS about a month ago. My aging HDD is about to die because of bad sectors, and I was able to get myself a great deal on a 1 TB Crucial P3. Got it and decided to install Linux instead of cloning my HDD.
There are minor pains of using Linux over Windows and trying to run Windows programs on it, but it is so much better now compared to even just a year or so ago.
I've not really played with Linux Distros much in the past several years due to windows ERP software at work. It's it still Wine or are there better solutions now for those windows only programs?
Wine is fucking fantastic now, and by extension dxvk, vkd3d, proton, etc
