Had the same idea last month. Feels great to get away from MS and to learn about Linux, re-igniting my interest in computers after years or just double clicking everything with no understanding of what processes are going on behind the scenes.
I already shifted to Linux Zorin OS. It's the best option for ex-Windows users like me. Sleek and modern with low learning curve.

I'm currently using this software, what kind of replacements do I have for it on Linux, that have an actual GUI, and not just command line?
There are probably loads of debugging software on Linux, also probably the one you are using will run just fine through wine.
What if I want to develop for Linux?
Lots of open source tools for that too.
Alright, what OS do people like for gaming? And can I play helldivers on it?
