I’ve seen a guy on Rumble, Switched to Linux, demo various Linux distros. Linux Mint Cinnamon was highly recommended.. may switch to that and try out a program that can run Windows apps & games.

My Windows 10 and 11 systems are “debloated” using a program written by Chris Titus et al. Pretty neat program to help put a choke collar on Microsoft’s hoopla.

The app you want to run windows programs in Linux is “Wine”. But it sometimes will not run some apps because the devs who built them made sure Wine will not run them. But Wine just did a WHOLE LOT of work on their newest version of Wine. So it is claimed to be much better... :)

And yes... Absolutely, Mint Cinnamon is the way to go... :)
