If you don't Switch to Linux or BSD you should kill yourself
for the gamer manchildren, any game worth playing works on Linux
there is nothing difficult about editing config files
a file manager is cumbersome and unnecessary, navigating with the command line days an hour to learn
a stacking window manager is not efficient
Wayland is ready, sway for intel/amd hyprland for nvidia
you can troubleshoot with chatgpt (duck.ai)
pipewire is superior to anything on windows for sound
gimp and maybe krita is all you need if you're not employed as a graphics designer
librewolf and mullvad-browser are the best browsers
kitty and foot are good terminals multiplexers
/boot is where your kernels and boot loaders go, /dev is device folder, for files that represent hardware devices like your ssd, cpu, cpu temperature senors whatever, /home is your user directory, /etc is sytemwide config files, /usr libraries and program executables, /var variable, log files etc because they change often
/ is top of filesystem hierarchy /root is the admin's /home
vim is the best editor, learning it easy if you use it
ls - list contents of directory
cd - change directory cd /root cd .. (goes up one directory in filesystem)
pwd - prints the working directory
mkdir - make a directory
rmdir - removes a directory
mv - moves a file
cp - copies a file
touch - creates an empty file
cat - displays content of file in terminal
man - opens manual file etc man vim
grep - searches for a string in files, stdout.
echo - prints text to terminal
df - disk space usage etc df -h
chmod, chown - change file permissions (read/write/execute) and file ownerships root/user etc chmod +x program (makes program executable)
clear - clears terminal
pkill - kill process
ip - displays network info $ip addr
mpv - the best video player
./program - execute program in working directory (.) working directory
if you want to know how to do something just go duck.ai and ask

I don't know, I've only ever used mint, debian and arch linux. right now I use, debian stable - trixie, in my opinion it's the best debian has ever been, and since amd gpu drivers are built into the kernel it shouldn't be a problem like nvidia would be(which is outdated as fuck in the debian package repository), with nvidia gpu something like arch or mint or whatever would be better.

If you have the time to spare I would recommend starting with a window manager over a desktop environment, desuarchive.org/g an archive of 4chan.org/g/ usually has good recommendations for which software to use, to start you pick a window manager, terminal, panel/bar, and a web browser.
you should also set up full disk encryption by default

the main problem longtime windows users have when switching to Linux, is them trying to operate linux exactly like how they use windows, when you really should be learning the linux way to do things which is better

When copying large files to a USB device in Linux, the system may report the transfer as complete even though the data is still being written from a memory buffer to the physical device.
This occurs because the operating system uses a write cache to improve performance; it immediately acknowledges the write operation to the application once the data is in RAM, while the actual transfer to the USB drive happens in the background.
This can lead to data loss if the USB device is removed before the cache is fully flushed.


No windows user "ejects" the usb stick, maybe advocate within the linux community to fix the little but important things first before aggressively suggesting a switch?
my own desktop sometimes will not power off, it will just hang there with the fans spinning and i have to hold power button to power it off, it's not distro/hardware specific and none of the known fixes work, it's a kernel problem, i accept this, a new user will not accept such basic fails

if you want insane stability Debian
if you want stability & polished Mint
if you want to run the latest versions of software and some stability Manjaro
if you don't care about stability and like all the latest shit for gaming you can go with a pure rolling release like CachyOS

Don't fall for memedistros, arch is the hottest thing right now and you have the BEST wiki avaliable to fix any problema. If you are into gaming you have arch based distros with everything you need preinstalled.

been on Debian for at least 10-12 years, I can hardly remember the last time I had an issue, both with stable and testing, it just werks, I also find the netinst process optimal for my taste, it fits on an old USB stick and I only install whatever bloat I actually need for starting
