I'm planning on dual booting to test the waters and hopefully phase out windows for good in the next years.

Hopefully I will be on SteamOS or some other Linux distribution by them.
windows, what's that?
Still too much of a VR player to switch to Linux :/
Might get some hate from this, but... It's not as easy of a transition for everyone as the Linux crowd says it is.
I'm hoping Valve will start putting more effort into SteamVR for Linux and/or Proton for VR.
Actually switch to Linux. I already use Linux for a large portion of my work, so I'm comfortable with it. I just need to find and test some replacements for some Windows software and I should be good

I'll complete skip win11. So far there's no reason to upgrade. Win11 should logically be a good windows again.
If Game Maker ends up releasing their Linux IDE in a non-beta state, I'll switch to Linux tomorrow. It's one of the few tools still keeping me on Windows.
Switch to Linux. In fact, I already switched when Windows 10 came around. I don't miss Windows to be honest. The only time I use Windows is to play games that arent compatible with Linux or if I need to use an app that is only available for Windows.
Do my best to switch from windows to whatever Linux distro I've finally decided on. Anything I really need win10 for will just end up on a VM that I'll probably store a copy of on an external drive. It'll make things so much easier for me that way.
I'd get the best of both worlds, so long as I completely de-creepify the copy of win10 in the VM. Thank goodness there are tools for that.
Linux, Gaben be praised for lowering the bridge
