i'll upgrade to some baby Linux distro once the end of life hits, i am lazy
(i'd also need to set up a dual boot as i'm cursed to need Adobe apps and those are famously allergic to Linux)
Don’t do dual boot. Windows will purposefully fuck up your MBR so Linux disappears every update and it’s a bitch to fix.
Run that shit in a VM. It’s 2025 you will get good performance.
I've been dual booting with Grub for a year now and the only issue I ever had was accidentally installing Grub to the wrong drive at first
Maybe it's because I run the LTSC IOT version but so far I just pick which OS at boot and go, defaults to Linux after 10s of inactivity
Yeah grub with 2 drives, one windows, one linux. No problems at all.
