i decided to dual boot windows and pop os about 8 months ago, giving it a partition of 100gb (on the laptop's 500gb hard drive) so i could test it out. in that 8 months, i've used windows maybe 5 times and hated it every time i did.
after having some problems with disk space and unmet dependencies due to stuff i did wrong, i decided to do a full reinstall, this time giving linux a partition of 350gb, leaving windows there just in case i end up needing it. i cannot imagine ever going back.
so thank you for spreading linux propaganda, it converted me permanently.
i was pleasantly surprised to find out that nearly all of the apps i used on windows have linux versions. stuff like discord, vlc media player, etc. the ones that didn't have linux versions usually had open source equivalents that were better a lot of the time.
i don't know about design apps myself, and i'm not experienced enough to feel confident giving detailed advice, but it's worth googling and seeing if there are linux versions or equivalents of anything you use. to my knowledge, windows applications can also be run on linux through Wine, which is also worth checking out.
