Honestly, you’ll be better off getting into linux now than any previous years. It’s pretty easy and practical these days especially with the push into the Steam Deck. It’s pretty much plug(install)-and-play with most systems, there’s only a few outliers like custom pc’s and a small amount of games that will give you any sort of problems.
I run one windows, one mac, and like 5 linux machines. If you stick with the more popular linux distributions like debian you won’t run into weird problems. It’s only surfing weird distro’s like elementary and pop OS that I’ve had to do further troubleshooting on.
How I predict my migration will go:

Nah fuck that. Never 11. If I still use windows I’ll run 10
