I’ve seen a lot of complaints and Windows 11 on Lemmy, (ads in the OS, intrusive AI, SSD damage, privacy issues, etc.) I’ve gone to Linux on my laptop, but I don’t believe I can do this for my daily driver desktop. So if I’m forced to update to 11, I’d like to do so in the “safest possible manner.” Any guidance would be appreciated.
Since you’re at least familiar with it, would you be willing and able to try Linux as your daily driver? You might surprise yourself.
For years I dual booted essentially thinking I wasn’t ready to daily it. In the end I just needed to commit and stop booting to windows.
Where can I look up to see if games that I want to play that are currently PC only can also be played on Linux?

I’ll say, almost every game is likely going to work unless it has shitty kernel anti cheat, and we shouldn’t support those games anyways.
Vr is a little bit of a hassle but it does work. Its only a little more jank than windows.
