Should I switch to Linux? (alien.top)
 

Been a long time Windows user but with each Windows version, I hate it more. So bloated and locked in. I saw that mint is a good beginner distribution but its not supported by framework. Is Ubuntu really different from Windows with a higher learning curve?

Talk me out of wasting hours to get linux working when Windows works out-of-the-box

Is it better to get a kit or have it included in the diy purchase? Also are there any considerations that need to be made to buy outside party ram?
