Additionally, what changes are necessary for you to be able to use Linux full time?

    A few apps I needed didn’t work on Linux without a hassle and a lot of games I play with friends only run on Windows. I also found a lot of things were kind of a hassle on Linux, especially screen scaling. Fractional screen scaling straight up barely works and everything on my laptop screen was usually tiny.

    I would totally go back when the experience is a bit nicer, I’m pretty frustrated with Windows. I think the Linux desktop experience isn’t totally ready imo.

      Could you mention what apps you needed to run? Also, fractional scaling has been improved a lot in Gnome and KDE, afaik.

        I don’t remember which they were exactly but some Adobe products were some of them. Specifically Illustrator.

        I hope so. I’ve last been on Linux like ~2 years ago and I’ve heard some good changes.
