Approaching the end of window 10 and have no plans on upgrading to 11.

I am trying to find alternatives to applications I regularly use before jumping ship (it is mostly a gaming focused pc) any suggestions?

There’s oculus software for my vr but don’t know what I’m going to do with that

Small update: probably going to do Linux mint as that appears to be the most beginner friendly

Update two: that’s a lot of comments, and Thanks for all the info

    AMD DRIVERS - Linux’s built in drivers

    Chrome - Chrome

    gmail - gmail

    Office 360 - Office 360 (web)

    Norton - You don’t need such piece of adware in Linux

    Py-charm - py-charm

    Star citizen - Star citizen though steam

    VPN - Proton VPN (my suggestion)

    Windows 10 - Fedora KDE

    My suggestions if you want a smoother transition, repeated ones have Linux versions

      At least get clamAV setup. No OS is virus immune. And if wine is installed without proper sandboxing …

        SELinux, wine (and other apps) installed via user flatpak with proper permissions configued, coupled with ufw or firewalld, secure boot enabled and an immutable system should be fine, no?
