I have no plans to either update to win11 or change back to chanting magic spells at my computer to get it to work (Ubuntu, many years ago).

My computer works and does everything I want it to. Basic internet security and reasonable precautions are sufficient for a low level user like me to stay safe.

The Linux experience has changed quite a lot over the years. You're unlikely to have trouble getting your computer to work with it now.

Dual booting with EndeavourOS now. Once i know i can repeat my workflow on it, i’ll switch over for good.

I've been daily-driving Linux Mint (LMDE 6) on my Thinkpad T14 G1 for almost a year now. At this point, that laptop is easily the most dependable machine I've ever had. My gaming PC is the last remaining Windows machine in my house. Recently I've been making sure everything is backed up (Syncthing is great for this) and finding alternatives for programs that don't have a Linux version.

My plan is to create images of both my SSDs (500GB & 2TB, both NTFS 🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️🤦‍♂️) onto a 4TB hard drive. Then start from scratch, migrating data from the images (Steam games, config files, personal documents I may have missed, etc) when/if I need it.

Anybody tried a steam deck with dock? Gaming and casual desktop should be doable with that.

Steam deck with dock is amazing. I picked up a dock about 6 months ago and have gotten so much use out of it.

Being a deck owner not over obsessed in the latest tripe A game.
