I really want to switch to Linux, up to this point there were two things keeping me on Windows, gaming and work.
Gaming nowadays is a lot easier than a couple of years ago thanks to Valve and Proton, so that's not a problem anymore; with the other one I don't know if I can make something work enough and that's why I'm asking here.
I work as a fullstack software developer with windows products I don't fear for the frontend part because typescript, angular, react, .... those I know I can run on linux with no problem on VS Code; for backend thought: dot.net, visual studio, sql server, ... I think there is no Visual Studio for Linux and I don't know if I can run & debug .net 8 applications on a linux machine? I can use docker for things like databases. Does anybody else has a similar scenario and things that had to overcame? Tips, problems that I may not see now before making the switch, and solutions to my current problems are welcome
Instead of trying to run heavy and complex apps on an OS that were never designed for, use Windows for work, and then use gaming and your personal life on Linux. Another thing you can do is switch the kind of programming you do, so it's more linux-related, so overtime, you can only have Linux machines. But for the time being, if you're doing windows programming, use a windows machine for work.
