You try can Linux out without installing it(via live USB)? Check this guide but use Kubuntu instead of Ubuntu. You can also try it out via virtual machine.

Also try to switch to cross platform open source programs like these so you'll be able to use the same programs when you switch to Linux

      Have they said anything about whether or not Windows 10 would continue to get feature updates? It's probably only going to be critical security updates for 10 moving forward.

          Absolutely incredible that they told everyone that they needed a new device in the middle of a semiconductor shortage with no end on the horizon for several years.

              Yup. Gamers and people with odd hardware are kinda stuck with certain things as well, just because there's no support for linux on things like Tobii eye trackers, or weird issues with G-Sync//FreeSync compatibility.
