Do it. I will too. I'll do a QEMU Vm for my windows needs. I'm done with their behavior.

Sure, once I decide on a more permanent distro. Manjaro was ok but I keep hearing bad things and it was a gaming partition, not an all purpose partition. I'm sure lurking in Linux communities will give me some ideas, though.

Yeah, I got my samba Share setup on my temporary NAS tonight. But after I transfer my files, I'm torn what try as permanent. Been using KDE Neon on my laptop, but it does need to update every boot it seems.

I used Kubuntu on my workstation and liked it. I use ubuntu at work for all my Linux needs there. I'm also really tempted to just make it a proxmox server and turn it into a VM box essentially. Which would make the experience of trying new things or switching back to windows for that inevitable game that won't work on Linux fairly seamless. But I could also give freebsd another go too, which doesn't seem like a terrible idea

I could ramble on, but I think I'll leave it at the realization I really like Debian based distros. If you feel like it let me know what you decide!
