hey there, im looking for the best distro for swapping entirely from windows 10 to linux, while keeping my steam library useable. i have over 300+ games and would like to use the distro thats most likely to support most of them now, and into the future.
thats basically it. just looking for recommendations, warnings, do’s and dont’s, etc. and maybe a guide on removing windows entirely once its all said and done. i dont want microsoft having access once i make the move to linux.
they disgust me.
edit: thanks for the advice, super helpful everyone!
I can second this. When I first installed Linux I partitioned it to work on the same ssd as my windows install. I must have made a mistake (I don’t know what) because my windows install ended up being formatted and I lost a copy of a video game world I had put over 100 hours of work in with a friend, it was very sad.
I thought I had a backup but I didn’t test it properly so I actually didn’t have a backup. I guess everyone needs to make this sort of mistake once.
