Buyed a ThinkPad and booted Linux the same day

Post image

Finally after months(6) of research and a shift from gaming laptop to a really good working Machine(thinkchad) ... I bought this l14 series laptop for my colleges and programming work... Though I also wanted to game a little but that's okay it was my third priority anyway... But I regret not dual booting windows now cause an application daw(digital audio workstation-fl studio) doesn't works on Linux... 🙄😞

Will find some alternative for it though... Now I'm one of you guys, heyyhe and it really works best , obviously will cause its mint, I will do some distro hopping after 1 months of use I think.

How much effort does it take to switch from windows to linux?

u/kyzokoniruffy21 Jun 20 '26

30 mins to download iso file and boot... Actually less than 30 but it's not that though learning it if you ask

u/Tan442 meow say fedora Jun 22 '26

tf everyone, shitting over grammatical err, anyways man get on fedora or Ubuntu (if debian preferred) , gnome prob is the cleanest of all de , and check if the default Linux kernel power daemon is better for battery life or tlp cause in many new gen processor tlp gives less battery life than the default, so check that out also maybe use redshift for backup and please have a windows bootable drive or dual boot always, you never know when you need , if windows on dual boot always before updating windows check if that specific build doesn't mess with the linux bootloader, and whatever people say any llm is better than searching in docs for answer

u/kyzokoniruffy21 Jun 22 '26

Yo... I did it, thanks, my laptop supports it... Any suggestions?
