Approaching the end of window 10 and have no plans on upgrading to 11.
I am trying to find alternatives to applications I regularly use before jumping ship (it is mostly a gaming focused pc) any suggestions?
There’s oculus software for my vr but don’t know what I’m going to do with that
Small update: probably going to do Linux mint as that appears to be the most beginner friendly
Update two: that’s a lot of comments, and Thanks for all the info
Chrome - exists on Linux, but Firefox is in my opinion a better choice.
Gmail - if you are attached to webmail, that still works. Nearly any distro you pick will also come with a native email app.
PyCharm - JetBrains IDEs work on Linux. No need to switch.
VPN - Your desktop environment will probably have built in controls for a VPN, you just need to get a configuration file from your company.
Windows games - Most games from Steam will just work if you turn on a compatibility setting in Steam, it manages Valve’s own version of Wine for you.
