Been a long time Windows user but with each Windows version, I hate it more. So bloated and locked in. I saw that mint is a good beginner distribution but its not supported by framework. Is Ubuntu really different from Windows with a higher learning curve?
Talk me out of wasting hours to get linux working when Windows works out-of-the-box
If you do a lot of heavy lifting in Excel, VBA, PowerPoint, Visio, or anything Adobe then you’ll need a Windows partition or VM.
If you can get by on Google Workspace, Office365, or LibreOffice then you won’t need Windows.
