I have a couple thinkpads loaded with windows 11 pro, would it benefit me to switch them over to Linux? Would I be able to use all the essential programs (or equivalent programs) that I would need to cover all my bases?
Edit: I should probably include that I’m a complete noob as far as Linux goes. I have a decent handle on computers in the general but have never been close to being any sort of computer enthusiast. Basically, I understand what terminal is but have only used it with direct instruction.
Thank you much for these insights, it’s definitely going to take a bit of experimenting to get everything figured out. I’ll be referencing this comment for a while.
