i like gaming,browsing(brave),im open to using open source software like gimp,libreoffice,qbittorrent etc i don’t really care about specific software other than brave.

i don’t use steam,i use pirated games so they should work on whatever distro i will use.

i have no problems with learning more,searching,or posting about linux to learn. and im open to using terminal i already like it somewhat on windows.

my laptop that i will install linux on is msi gf63 with gtx 1650,i5-10500h,16gb ram,1tb ssd sata and 256gb ssd nvme.

so should i switch to linux? i feel like i don’t exactly like where microsoft is taking windows to,but im not sure if my games will work on linux.

you can ask me more questions to see if my usage is supported or not by linux. im open to any easy distro. i don’t relay on microsoft office or adobe apps or any of these things. my usage is pretty generic.

    NTFS works with proton as long as you set up your /etc/fstab properly to make sure it’s mounted as writeable, but I believe you also need proprietary drivers… I can’t remember now, but up until a couple weeks ago I had my storage drive with all my games mounted in Fedora and it was NTFS from my previous win11 install.
