I do for all my machines except the daily driver and at work.
I want to switch over my main system to Linux but I’m putting it off because I feel like I need a full day or two to just transfer simple things like browser info, save games, find utility apps, etc. Plus a bunch of games that I like playing still don’t work on Linux. I also haven’t looked into how to attempt to play “unlicensed” games on Linux yet.
Hows VanillaOS compare to Fedora/Nobara for school? I work + take courses at the college and 99% of the time Fedora works wonderfully. The only issue I’ve ran into is using Respondous Lockdown Browser as it has to be done with a VM and they don’t like VMs whatsoever
Works great, I’ve never had issues. I’ve only had one prof that used lockdown and which I told them. I use Linux, and it doesn’t support it, so they made accommodations (Schools are required to). I use the containers in the software to install various scripts for marketing etc. Flatpak’s are nice and easy to use. It has native AppImageLauncher support.

I’ve been using Linux for 3 years in college
My Linux distro hop went ZorinOS -> Fedora Workstation -> Nobara Linux -> Now (VanillaOS)

AppImageLauncher is the move if you use any app images for sure! Super sweet it’s ready to rock on install with VanillaOS
no installation needed
Exactly, I was referencing the VanillaOS install. I’m setting up a VM soon to test the waters 100%
