From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

This is a what I'm trying to do at the moment, but I forget to switch back if I've been forced to boot into Windows.
It doesn't help that I've got ADHD, so I'm convinced that I've forgotten something and just can't remember what >.<
Fellow ADHD guy here, back when I switched to Linux from macOS I encountered the same issue, maybe you can try to move all of the important stuff to Linux first, so when you use Windows for the things that you haven't moved over yet you are forced to reboot into Linux to do other stuff
That's a good idea, I might try it that way, thanks :)
Hope that works for you. If you have any further questions, don't hesitate to DM me, I'd be happy to help you out!
Thank you :)
Also can try setting Linux as the default boot option
That would involve rebooting ;)
If you log out of websites & delete your cookies on Windows, random browsing may be more inconvenient there.
Another benefit to dual-booting is that you can still read your Windows files from Linux, so whenever you realize something you're forgetting, you can just dip in and grab it.
