for anyone afraid to make the jump to linux do it, now is the time. especially if you have an amd gpu unless you absolutely need software/games that does not support linux (and I dont mean the millions of windows games proton supports effortlessly, just a handful with kernel ac, and some pro software)

too daunting to research and learn? try in a vm and use llms to help you understand how things work

took me a week to get comfortable in arch linux after around two decades of windows

The only reason I'm still in Windows is because I use Clip Studio Paint as my main art program (and while it is on Wine, the compatibility is extremely poor) and I also play certain FPS games with anti-cheat that's incompatible with Linux. If those two problems are solved (which is one thing I'm banking Valve to do with SteamOS) then I'll ditch Windows permanently. Until then, maybe the next time I install I'll use Win11 LTSC which doesn't come with any of Microsoft's AI bullshit (or even the Microsoft Store at all) with the only downside being new versions taking 3 years to arrive instead of one.

BTW: If ya'll are in Windows 11 against your will and want to remove all AI features, check this out. Essentially it's a script that will delete all AI from your system. I would recommend reading the documentation, but all you need to do is open Terminal/Powershell as admin and run this command:
