Have you or someone close to you converted to Linux recently (with Windows 10's end of support)? (lemmy.ca)

I'd like to hear people's journeys and motivations from people who switched over the last few months, and if there were particular challenges that were faced.

I prefer KDE Plasma, too. Fortunately, just about every desktop distro has it available even if GNOME or something else is the default. Find out what package to install. (On Debian-based distros, it's probably kde-plasma-desktop.) Install it, log out, and look for a session selector on the login screen. Change it to Plasma before logging in again.

If the same game problems reappear when you're on a different distro, you might want to describe them in detail on a Linux gaming forum. Someone there might be familiar with how to fix them.
