Gaming, which was always why Windows had to be installed on my desktop, has gotten quite stale lately so my Steam Deck and Anbernic devices have been a blast playing through some nostalgic retro games.
It's also quite interesting how stable and uneventful my time (almost 2 years now) with Linux Mint has been. I remember the time when I couldn't wait for new Windows versions to come out. Now? I never want a new one to ever come out again in favor of stability and predictability.
Windows doesnt play well with dual boot, so I had to literally detach the SATA cable to keep it from eating my GRUB bootloader partition.
I switched to using the System76 distribution Pop! OS, which bakes in GPU drivers (among other things). I used the rust-based Cosmic desktop, but that choice is a different discussion.
On Linux, I was able to run almost every single Windows game well on a Nvidia 3060.
Storage was easy, pretty much everything supports FAT reads at a bare minimum, NTFS is possible with the FUSE drivers that are package-installable.
Development was easy, multimonitor was easy, suspend was a little wonky on my hardware, sleep was great.
Bluetooth ended up taking some serious wrangling for usb devices, about that point is when cli chops come in handy. Wifi was natural if a bit clunky UI-side.
All that said, they're still in early days, YMMV.
My biggest concern was gaming but Steam really makes it work seamlessly. Lutrix/GOG is not as seamless but works well enough. Could be better but it works and the crap coming into Windows just pushed the final nail into the coffin. Will be retiring Windows forever in the next month.
