I’ve strongly enjoyed cachyOS. Cue downvotes for this, but I installed ClaudeCode (any other cli would work fine too like opencode etc) and gave it a persistent memory as an OS helper of sorts when I get stuck.
Probably moronic to quit windows over AI integration and then set up Linux with the exact same vision just in a completely custom way.
SSDs costing $300 for me. For some reason my current drives refuse to partition. I got an old laptop on it, but it barely works regardless of what OS is on it.
A good place to start, if what you do for those two hours a month is just a browser and such, is a live USB with Linux mint (or something like that) and then there is no commitment until you are ready.
Yeah every time I get on my laptop it’s a little more unrecognisable and unusable to me. Will be getting in Linux as soon as I get a chance.
