    Don’t use Windows. I’m sorry but it’s not great software. I’ve managed hundreds of servers with it on there and it’s always a huge pain in the ass. I run Fedora Linux and it’s great, if that’s too technical, you could do an Ubuntu spin, like Mint. Windows is also resource heavy and insecure. Grab a thumb drive and flash a live image and boot to it and see what you think. I promise you, you’ll probably like it.

    And if you’re thinking, what about my games, Valve has made so much effort to make Windows games run on Linux, because of their SteamOS, which is Linux.

        Which games? Protondb is a great resource to see what games work on Linux. But basically all you need to do is add a game to either Steam or Heroic Launcher and then set the game to launch with Proton. That site will tell you if you’ll need a specific version of Proton for a game.
