Hey everyone,

I am exploring switching over to Linux but I would like to know why people switch. I have Windows 11 rn.

I dont do much code but will be doing some for school. I work remote and go to school remote. My career is not TOO technical.

What benefits caused you to switch over and what surprised you when you made the switch?

Thank you all in advanced.

    I bought a laptop just as Windows Vista came out that could barely run it despite being labeled as “made for Vista”. Once I installed Ubuntu on (Gutsy Gibbon) on it everything worked much more smoothly…even World of Warcraft through Wine, which was why I wanted a new laptop in the first place. I haven’t played WoW for years, but I never wanted to go back to Windows.
