So im a noob as some say, theirs certain games and software i use on windows that wont work on linux. ive tried linux but i found myself switching back to windows. I really do want to stay with linux but im not sure how or if i should duel boot or something? also what flavor of line do you enjoy or would suggest?

    I agree with all of this except maybe the wine suggestion. Wine on its own, imo, is too complicated for new linux users.

    I would instead recommend looking at lutris (yes I know it is mostly games but it does have some software too) or bottles. Since these abstract away the manual management of wine prefixes.

      Makes sense. Do you know a more user-friendly alternative? Maybe something like bottles?
