Been a long time Windows user but with each Windows version, I hate it more. So bloated and locked in. I saw that mint is a good beginner distribution but its not supported by framework. Is Ubuntu really different from Windows with a higher learning curve?
Talk me out of wasting hours to get linux working when Windows works out-of-the-box
If you are passionate about privacy, enjoy tinkering with your computer, or program in your free time, then Linux might be right for you.
If you hate tinkering or you use a lot of proprietary software, then sticking with windows may be wise.
