When I was 13 I installed Linux in Virtualbox on a Mac because for some reason thought dual booting would be harder, we did not have any non-apple devices in the house, I do not recommend, the performance was terrible (I probably had something set up wrong because it was really way worse than you would expect)

I have ended up on Windows with a Linux laptop for traveling, but will probably switch to Linux as soon as either:

1. I get a new VR headset
2. Monado gets decent controller tracking support
3. It's 2026 and Windows with WMR support has stopped getting security updates

Then I will have crossed the whole mac->windows->linux pipeline.
