Only issue I had on my gaming laptops was it had 2 issues.
>Bluetooth for my Xbox controller.
>The boot USB is now read only and won't let me remove my distro.
Othe than that, everything has been great
>Piper worked for my G300s
>Games ran fine with mods installed
>Most programs I used were available
Any other things I should look into as a windows user to get full Linux transitioned by October?
I am converting a girl I know as well. She hates windows but I worry some of her art pariferals may have problems.

Chastity cage, unix socks, thick long dildo, xitter account following the best porn accounts.

Might as well go down the rabbit hole immediatly instead of slowly building up to it.

Linux is indispensable if you're an artist, a total upgrade: If you have a tablet PC, you can use any Wacom stylus you like because there's no vendor lock-in. Meanwhile on Windows, OEM's ship custom drivers on their tablets that are incompatible with their competitors' pens, even though these tablets are all using Wacom digitisers anyway.

Krita, Photocrea, FireAlpaca, GIMP, and Inkscape are on Linux and are all great!

I have to ask my artist friend what pad she uses.
She is willing to make the leap software wise since she hates photoshop.

Only deal breaker would be "my tablet doesn't work" and i am uncertain how much she'd be willing to buy a new tablet.

But if it works Bazzite w. KDE is right up her ally since KDE feels like it could have been a new version of windows that didn't suck.

I mean most people say apple is the only option, but mac workflow is absolute trash.

its in fact easier to use than on windows because libwacom is a dependency for many default packages (wayland, xorg, many des to include kde and cinnamon) so she can just plug and play like it's a mouse or keyboard. libwacom isnt just for wacom tablets either; it works for huion, xp-pen and the like. it even comes with a replacement "wacom center" for configuring her setup.
tl;dr it should just work out of the box.

Should be an easy conversion if its just plug and play for art pariferals.
Windows has become unbearable for her as well.

The Linux kernel has drivers for EVERYTHING man. Even bloody Wii remotes. As long as you're on a recent kernel (eg Bazzite), all your peripherals should work.
