So what did it take for you to go to Linux?

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.

Was curious about the increased customisation so I went dual boot around the time of windows 7.
Went full time Linux when windows 8 came out. Windows has only continued its enshitification since then, so it really paid off.
Every machine I'm currently running would run like dog shit with windows, but runs like brand new with Linux Mint.
