    No doubt. I’ve been exploring Linux distros all day today.

      Mint is solid, especially for newbies. I run Bazzite on my Legion Go and it generally outperforms Windows.

        Thanks. I’m a semi-newbie, thinking about going with Debian, but just about to test it on a VM right now.

          Linux Mint is based on Debian and is a bit more user friendly.

            Thanks, I’m still considering my options. Mint is in the list of possibilities.
