So im a noob as some say, theirs certain games and software i use on windows that wont work on linux. ive tried linux but i found myself switching back to windows. I really do want to stay with linux but im not sure how or if i should duel boot or something? also what flavor of line do you enjoy or would suggest?


As others have mentioned, keeping around a USB SSD with a windows install can be useful, I have a cheapo 10Gbps NVME eclosure, that is more than fast enough to host a snappy windows install. I have so far used it to run the shitty windows-only reddragon software to rebind buttons on my mouse, and to run stellaris (when they had a platform-dependant OOS but that has since been fixed)
A note about dual-booting, I learned a lot about EFI setting that up ages ago, and while I no longer dual-boot, the knowledge has been useful to me on many occasions, even for recovering cooked windows installs. I imagine it is more stream-lined these days, but then again it seems to have fallen out of fashion, so maybe not. YMMV
