Come children come to Linux. Debian is your new Father...

I was a Debian guy for years now. Running on all my servers and virtual machines, but never got to be satisfied with it enough to “format Windows” out of my main computer. Until one day I discovered Aurora and relatives. That’s it, that’s the endgame for me. Literally everything works out of the box including support for legacy Nvidia cards, g-sync, scaling etc. and I can fully understand and like their design decisions (hell, with brew it will be just like having a Mac). I’m done with Windows before this year ends.

No doubt. I've been exploring Linux distros all day today.

Mint is solid, especially for newbies. I run Bazzite on my Legion Go and it generally outperforms Windows.

Thanks. I'm a semi-newbie, thinking about going with Debian, but just about to test it on a VM right now.

Linux Mint is based on Debian and is a bit more user friendly.

Thanks, I'm still considering my options. Mint is in the list of possibilities.
