I don't consider myself to be an advanced PC user, but even I was able to get Arch Linux to run with some googling and tinkering as my first dive into Linux. I really think you should make the switch if you don't have any work restrictions. I dualboot still, just in case, but I can't remember the last time I needed to use Windows.

Like you and the others say, if you have limited time gaming or don't play AAA on launch day, that's just one more reason not to use Windows! Good luck!

Doesn't "consider [themselves] to be an advanced PC user..."

Picks Arch as their first Linux distro.

Found Linus Sebastian.

I only did it to try to impress people online lol.

Everything is like a Hodge Podge of fixes just to make it work, so if anyone asks me about the inner workings of everything, I wouldn't be able to answer like 75% of it. I'm still learning.
