Not gonna upgrade.

Have already had Linux for decades.

Linux still can’t handle anticheats for the games I play, so primarily on Windows I stay.

I tried out going 100% Linux a year ago. Unfortunately I was playing one of the very few games that has Linux issues. 100% CPU all the time was bugging me. It's not the fault of Linux. Anyway, that's how it played out. I may be tempted to try again soon.

How do I even get started? Do I just install Mint and figure it out from there? Linux seems so complicated but it's been a decade since I last tried. Nowadays, I feel old and this seems like it needs too much research

I run Fedora KDE now, but I’m going to keep my Windows 10 install on Windows 10.

Already transitioning. Been half doing it for ages. This'll just be the last bit.

Well my PC can't do windows 11, and upgrading is now impossible thanks to a certain someone. So yeah...

yeah i need star citizen, ableton, fl studio, premier, photoshop and more before i can dedicate a jump to linux

Went to Linux a couple months ago, its freaking awesome, you'll never look back. And it is way easier to use than people make it out to be. Also my PC has never been faster thanks to having zero bloat.

I might get downvoted or whatever but Windows 11 is fine. I get it if your PC straight up can’t run it, that’s a tough spot. But as an OS it’s fine, even has a few handy features (besides all the AI crap shoehorned in). I actually like the File Explorer changes and the window snap stuff can work in the right setting.

I can't afford a new computer right now and tariffs meaning higher prices means I can't anticipate affording one in the near future. My plan is to see where everything's at when they stop doing updates. Unfortunately.

I've been trying to get a good domain authed nix set up for a while. Alternately, if I could set up a gaming server using sunshine/moonlight.

Unfortunately, I use some software that's Windows-only, and can't be bothered to set up a VM or anything

Upgrade tool says my hardware isn't supported, seems like I can enable TPM on my motherboard but it doesn't work right for some reason I think I managed to install Windows 10 without secure boot or something, not sure if those two are even related. I was thinking maybe I'd have to reinstall windows 10 with those modules enabled in order to upgrade to windows 11... Has anyone else encountered something similar?

Bought my wife a framework laptop, slapped fedora on it and have been helping her make the switch. So far so good other than Obsidian not working the same as OneNote.

Plan on, if possible, cloning my account to a new account on a new internal drive (preferably a 2TB+ drive) to save all my stuff that I want and don't feel like moving over due to laziness. Then on another partition, I plan on having the rest of the space being used for Linux. All I gotta do is make sure the win10 partition doesn't receive an ounce of Internet connectivity at all and pray I don't end up with a virus or something similar somehow (because even the safest internet practices aren't safe enough anymore).

Hopefully I can turn that partition into a cold partition where I can keep the current games I have that aren't downloaded through Steam installed to ensure I can still play them. Then I can slowly debloat it by uninstalling everything I don't need on there and get rid of a ton of files/unnecessary programs so that way I can still have roughly 500-600GB for win10 just in case I ever need it for anything, like a program I genuinely cannot figure out how to get working on Linux.

Build new computer. Old computer to be a home server running Linux or something fancy.

If ya want to not be plugged into the internet, or use new external media, ya can probably run it safely forever.

linux primary with dual boot for a windows install just because of the games that won't work.

Why is Bill Gates in the picture? lol

Come to Linux, it's all I've used since Windows 7 and it works great.
