I tinkered a bit with linux before and dual-booted for about 3 months before I switched entirely to linux about a year ago now. I used this "grace period" to get more familiar, set up everything like i wanted it, and just tested some stuff.

After using Mint before I settled for EndeavourOS. It's based on Arch. As a rolling release OS I find it interesting for gaming and getting recent updates that are not entirely bleeding edge. There were some learning and even issues in the beginning concerning nvidia GPUs but I didn't have any major issues for months now. The only major issue I had was cause by my own stupidity but also could be fixed using chroot.
