I don't know if and how crossposting functions in kbin/lemmy, so hopefully it'll work that way

Lots of people to the time to reply here and at kbin.
It probably will not hurt to also ask on https://superuser.com/ https://stackexchange.com/ and Reddit linuxquestions or another appropriate subreddit. To me it seems like Discord is similar like IRC : questions will get snowed under after others write newer things and your reading audience is likely decreasing.
And a question : What are your plans with Linux on your desktop ?
If you are interested in learning more Linux then a refurbished laptop is a good start to run Linux natively without a dual boot.
Don‘t get me wrong, I‘m not complaining at all, in contrary, I am enormous grateful for any help I get.
I posted alread in reddit as well - subreddits r/Nobara, r/linux4noobs and r/linuxquestions
Asus-Linux has a thready-like area in their discord „general-issues“, where I made the thread…
At first it is to learn how everything behaves, test my use-cases to see, if linux could become an all-dayer for me - that would be the main goal - until then the dual-boot to have a fallback option.
Cool. 👍
In that case, VirtualBox and other emulators could be useful to look into. And WSL may be limited (I've read) but also useful. Never tried WSL but a friend of mine is happy with it.
yeah, already played around with VirtualBox and WSL, but there are use-cases (e.g. in gaming) where just an emulation can't really show what's possible and what not, that's why I would love to have the dualboot, so I can reliably test everything without any excuses like "runs probably bad because of emulation"
