I’ve been meaning to switch my pc to linux for a while but have only recently gotten enough time to switch. Is there anything that I would need a dualboot for? I was previously concerned with VR, specifically using a quest wirelessly. I heard about a year ago that it is possible but not the best. Has it improved since then?

And is there anything else I would still need a windows machine for? I don’t know specifically what doesn’t work and I don’t mind using FOSS alternatives.

I was running a raspberry pi with raspian on it as a homelab for a few years (until the SD card died :( I still need to fix that) so I am not completely unfamiliar with linux and the terminal and am willing to use it to make programs work as long as they work as well as they would on windows.

(I’ve decided on swapping to mint if that matters)

    There are some games I play that work well on linux (marked playable on deck) but have external utilities that I refuse to play it without, is there somewhere like protonDB I can check to see how well it runs through wine (and how to set it up with wine? I’m not very experienced with it)

    https://appdb.winehq.org/ is the general wine equivalent of ProtonDB.
