I'm only a Linux command-line guy (Mac for GUI), but you're making the right decision. You can have a computer that doesn't suck and this is one of the ways. Good luck!

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Sadly, still dual boot for rhino, in a VM I’m just not getting enough performance out of my aging pc.
A Linux version would be a dream come true.
If you have NVidia, I'd recommend Pop_OS!. The Nvidia controls in there for Optimus are the best that System76 has written.
Nobara has a lot of fixes in it that are made for video editing and graphics, particularly davinci and blender. It's quite cutting edge on it's packages (despite being based on Fedora 39 it has Plasma 6 for last few weeks). but otherwise quite stable to use. All non-free package repos are enabled. Overall, it's been a low-maintenance, high productivity environment for me.
Thanks for sharing this information! I appreciate the detailed explanation and the effort you put into making it clear. It’s really helpful and will definitely guide me in making an informed decision. If you have more tips qr コード 読み取り pc or insights, feel free to share them. Thanks again!
I'd recommend installing kde neon. KDE is a user interface that looks a bit more like windows, it should be an easy transition. KDE Neon runs most of the latest versions, should have the best support whilst being easy to install.
Most of the software you manage should work, for those that might be problematic, you might be able to find alternatives, see alternativeto.net
Using VS code is definitely bad. Round these here parts, you choose either the Church of Emacs or the Cult of vi… no exceptions.
Or you can just use vscodium.
BLASPHEMER!!!

Does it work in a terminal as a TUI? If no, gates shall be kept. 😠
