If the whole Windows Recall thing scares you and you are looking for options: For many people Linux just does the trick. If you need a browser, some office stuff, maybe a bit of image/media management, Linux absolutely got you covered. It probably will be annoying or something might be broken but that is the same with every operating system.

But before you install something, maybe have a chat with someone who knows a bit more about it to help you navigate the choices and to ensure that your workload is actually supported on Linux.

But it's no longer an OS just for experts. You can do almost anything graphically and a lot of shit just works.

@tante I'm fairly impressed at the work that's gone into making games work - I do have a variety of games that I've purchased through Steam and it looks like a fair number of them would be OK on Linux.

Other concerns that I have include Zoom videoconferencing and tax software.

I'd really like to avoid having to move to Windows 11 after Windows 10 patches stop happening.
