Proton is the reason I don't need any Windows machines anymore

I just need to suck it up and make the switch over already.

Would recommend, I actually enjoy interacting with my computer now rather than just tolerating Windows

I have it dual booting, just need to make the switch over to primary.

That's easy, just change the boot order so it defaults to Linux. If it's a pain to boot into Windows, you'll use it less and naturally replace your usage with Linux.

Try it for a week or two, you probably won't feel the need to go back. Make the switch today.

Yeah, that’s what I’ve been doing today. Pretty nice, just a pain to deal with NTFS shares but maybe I won’t need them soon enough.

Good luck!

I haven't had any issues accessing NTFS from Linux, though running applications in Linux from NTFS is not a recipe for success. Only share data across OSes and everything should be fine.

Depending on what you do with it it's easier than you'd think (provided you have a decent knowledge of Linux)
