how easy is linux? i see so many memes now and i wanna switch but I'm not confident in it

You can easily try it out by booting from usb.

It's pretty easy imo if you start with a Debian distro

Start by exploring Linux Mint or ZorinOS.. Both are optimized to feel like Windows.. You can watch YouTube videos about them to understand what I mean

At the risk of analysis paralysing you.. But if you have an Nvidia video card, I would start with Pop!_OS

If you have an NVIDIA video card, I would start with buying AMD or Intel instead. Attempting to use NVIDIA with Linux will result in misery.

Linux itself does nothing for desktop computing, you also need GNU and the rest of the free software suit to better the world
