I really wanna switch to Linux so bad because of windows 10 support is ending soon and windows 11 suck ass I especially hate chatgpt and edge and boring desktop environment and sloppy navigation around the os and inconsistent design and everything else really, the only reason I use computer is games and a bit of documents editing but I lose half of my fps when I played on Linux which is a big deal when all I have is a potato laptop, hopefully by the time windows 10 ended support gaming on Linux will be at least 80% of the windows performance
I switched to Linux a few months ago after building a new computer as I didn't feel like paying over $100 for an OS that has ads in the start menu and spammy popups.
Almost all of my games work fine and don't have any issues with lag. The exception is GTA V which doesn't work at all and Sims 4 which works fine but EA's launcher has given me a few issues.
You shouldn't have any issues with document editing or web browsing. In my experience printing actually works better on Linux than it did for me on Windows.
If you want you could dual boot or keep an old windows system around to play games that aren't working on Linux, but in my experience, most games, especially indie games, work just fine on Linux.
Yesterday played in it.Pirated one version works fine since it's doesn't relay on any laucher ;)
