That's up to you, nobody gains anything from you making the switch so you need to convince yourself.

It doesn't matter, you don't buy a license so you're not married to it. If you don't like how it works you can try a different one. Just backup your files so you don't lose them.
>Is it easy to use it?
Very easy but it's easier for someone who never used Windows. You have some things to unlearn because they're Windows-specific. Like having to update each program separately and to go to the homepage of a program to get the installer. Or to hunt down drivers so your hardware starts to work.
>Can i set the system in a one night?
Most of the popular and easy distros come pretty pre-tweaked out of the box so there's not much to set up.
>I hate microsoft 11.
Yeah so does 99% of the people using it. They're just unable to install something else, either due to a program that needs Windows or because they don't know how to install anything else.

have you tried to personalize win11 maybe look into that and try linux as you have material to process more suited for linux

You can install gentoo in one afternoon if you can read, you'll learn to use all you need if you can read, pick any of the big ones.
Only fucky things are windows' anemic EFI partition if you want to dualboot on a single disk and remembering that you cannot use an NTFS partition to install things into if you're using Proton.

It depends. If you're a lifelong Windows user, it's going to take some getting used to, and you're going to notice the difference. Not every program is going to just run after clicking on the .exe like it does on windows. If you use specific professional software like Photoshop or AutoCAD or FL studio, be aware that these don't run natively on linux and it takes some tinkering and workarounds to get them to work. It's not impossible to run these, but it's one a one click install sort of thing either.
If you don't use those specific programs, Linux is basically just as easy if not easier than Windows by this point. Gaming is just a matter of installing Steam and launching your games through the Proton launcher.

Start with the mainstream ones like Ubuntu or Fedora. Use Ubuntu for the widest range of support or Fedora for the most updates. Use the KDE desktop environment if you want something that's like Windows 7 or the Xfce desktop environment if you want something like Windows XP. Once you know what you like or dislike about Ubuntu or Fedora you can then search for more specialized distros that fix the stuff you dislike. Also explore customization options and once you get really comfortable with Linux you can try Arch if that's your thing.

>>107658343
For me personally, Linux has got to the point now where it's easier to use, more reliable, less janky than Windows. For me this applies to both work (programming) and personal (Steam gaming) use cases. But it might not be true for everyone or on all hardware. I think it's worth a try.
>Can i set the system in a one night?
Probably, depends on your general level of tech knowledge. If you would be able to reinstall Windows in one night and are comfortable with the steps involved (backing up your data, preparing a USB stick) then I'd say you should be able to get Linux running in one night.
>which distrubution should i take
I like Fedora KDE and I recommend it.
Other good options are Ubuntu and Mint. Bazzite is also popular with gamers, but you can game on other distros too.
Just avoid obscure and highly technical distros like Arch. Anything big, popular, and mainstream should be fine.
