That's more of a personal preference

Personally I prefer linux mint

But ubuntu has support for more DEs

And Linux mint is built on top of ubuntu

if u have EXTREMELY new motherboard, then ubuntu cinnamon 25.04

or even kubuntu 25.04 or straight old flagship version of it which is gnome

[golden furnace]

Why did you straight up suggest ubuntu stunner

[marble moth]

cuz very latest kernel

i said if it's extremely new mobo

[golden furnace]

i meant should i switch to linux not either one of these

[marble moth]

if u have some burning need to

[golden furnace]

I just switched out of curiosity. I had no reason.

if u want to just try it out, while retaining some customizations, use the Rufus flasher on an inexpensive USB, and drag its "Persistence" slider feature up a few gigs

then u'll have a live usb that run indepenently, and lets u experiment a bit. but mind u dont rely on persist feature to install MASSIVE applications or games.

small packages, sure

[golden furnace]

yes, i know

i like to experiment with linux and if sonething goes wrong you can just reinstall it without lots and lots of setup like windows

Yea so you already have experience with linux. Now it's upto you if you wanna switch or not.
