I switch to Linux 2 days ago and have been enjoying testing my Steam library. So far, everything Ive tested run BETTER in Mint than they did on Win10. Im currently waiting on BG3's massive 120GB download to complete but I'm looking forward to finally booting it up again.

The Linux community has been so friggin helpful in getting me up and going.

I went with Mint. I've read it's the easiest for beginners. Once I learn more about this new environment, I may experiment with others. I have 3 1T drives in my PC and I have one dedicated for that process whenever I get to that point. Thats the idea anyways.

im assuming you chose the cinnamon option when installing the mint iso. i also did.
