MODERATORS
People planning to migrate to Linux should probably allow themselves more than 15 minutes for the process of backing up all the things, choosing a distro, installing it, finding out what software is available, what needs to be learned, what needs to be given up, what new things are available, configuring everything, and getting used to using it.
It's a pretty big job. You've got to do it eventually though, might as well get started.
I'd argue it's no bigger job than keeping up with Windows.
Switching to 11 would cause more than 15 minutes of headaches as well.
