I’m not a computer expert or planning to be. I’m just a computer user, a coder, a gamer, and I think I will get the opportunity to afford cheaper PCs if I use the Arch distro from Linux which is very lightweight and fast. I’ve heard Microsoft forces you to bloat your PC with win11.


Yeah why not? No one was born knowing how to navigate the terminal. The only “hard” part of Arch is the installation, and these days there is even a script to automatically set it up.
If you have a spare computers, an old laptop maybe, you should first practice there before doing it on your main computer.
