Looking to make the switch - Advice? (feddit.uk)

Afternoon all.

I'm looking to make the switch away from Windows, and I wondered if people had any advice, distro suggestions and so on.

My main use cases for my PC are Gaming, Writing and Image editing. Things I'd love to have working are all my games, Epic, Steam, GoG and Game pass. I already use OpenOffice so I'm probably fine with that. And I currently use Photoshop, so a good alternative for that would be good. Finally Spotify, Discord and VPNs etc

Any and all help and suggestions would be welcomed, thanks in advance.

Spotify and discord work fine what VPN are you using? If you are using an AMD GPU I recommend fedora KDE, game pass and Microsoft store won't work, try Krita as a Photoshop alternative
