As a Windows 10 user I swear 11 just exists to force me to learn more about Linux. I dun wanna learn a new OS! I have too many hobbies and I just want steam and league. For now I'm just paying attention to all u Linux nerds and taking note. If Microsoft forces my hand I think mint looks like the easiest to setup based on what comments I've read.

I installed Linux Mint on an old laptop five years ago, it was pretty easy to set up. If you're coming from Windows, you shouldn't have much of a problem. It's pretty intuitive. I think I was using the Cinnamon desktop environment, which I'm sure has only improved since then.

Even if you don’t use Linux, play HOTS over League
