Hi everyone, I’m planning on moving from w11 to kubuntu (lts release - 24.04). I’m a gamer at heart, a game designer by education, and wanting to get away from Windows. I could really use some top tips, best practices, and things to look out for. I have run Linux on a Chromebook, but never as my primary PC.

I’m preparing by copying tax info, critical documents, game prototypes, and D&D documents to a USB.

Then run Linus from a different USB on restart?

Thank you for your help, and any references to specific how-to’s 😅.

    So he was manually compiling all the software he used, even those related to his system like openssh?

      Anything that wasn’t installed by default or wasn’t a dependancy. So Nvidia drivers he downloaded from the website, Discord, Spotify, Chrome.

      Some of them had .RPM files so that helped
