I used to dual boot for some work tasks and to play games. With OnlyOffice and Office365 in a browser, I can do everything I used to need desktop Window apps for. With Wine, Proton, and Proton-GE I can play all of my games in Steam or Heroic Launcher, so I don't need Windows for games anymore.

There is still a usecase for people who need Windows for specific usecases; but for most people the only obstacle is learning curve (and don't come at me with Mint, Ubuntu, and ElemntaryOS you're lying to yourselves).

There was def a learning curve - but I kinda just forced myself to do it. I'm still figuring things out - but I have solved every issue I've run into so far - so I feel good about that.

It's quite rewarding, IME. I'm never going back.
