  • Wine is the only way I know of to run Windows stuff on Linux, other things build on top of Wine (Proton is based on Wine and is oriented for game support, Lutris is a game-oriented launcher that helps with using Wine, etc).

    A bit of pedantry: Wine is a compatibility layer, it captures Windows calls and makes them happen using its own libraries and capabilities of the operating system.

    Documentation: I recommend Arch wiki - it is one of the best wikis and (mostly) works for non-Arch distros, too

    I recommend getting comfortable with the terminal, and after that - understanding how to troubleshoot an unbootable system (for example if GRUB goes oooaaaaaaauhhh) using livecd environment. And also try to learn Vim on comfortable pace, if you happen to like it, it’ll be great. Also make sure you have regular backups of important data.
