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
Give it a go. I use windows, macOS and Linux. Love all three and use all 3.
If you’ve never used Linux before, try Ubuntu or Pop OS. I use pop OS for my dev laptop.
