I'm considering making the leap to Linux after a frustrating experience with Windows 11. I've done some initial research, but I'm not sure how much I should really dive in, especially since I rely heavily on Chrome web apps for work. Is it true that Chrome apps can work on Linux? I'm worried about compatibility issues with my Asus ROG Strix G7, especially since many of my games won't be available. Should I stick with Windows 11 until I know more, or is it safe to transition to Linux now? What are your thoughts?

Make sure you back up everything before switching! The last thing you want is to run out of space and accidentally lose something important in the transition. Explore Linux at your own pace, and when you're ready, you can transition fully. Just keep your Windows accessible for now to ease the process!
Before fully committing to Linux, consider dual-booting. This way, you can keep Windows 11 around and test Linux without losing your setup. You'll have a chance to try out your apps and games to see what works and what doesn't, plus, you'll become more familiar with Linux at your own pace. It's like test driving a car before you buy it!
Yes, Chrome web apps do work on Linux! You can install Chrome on pretty much any Linux distribution, and your apps should function similarly to how they do on Windows. Just make sure you check if your specific apps have any quirks on Linux. If it's a standard web app, you’re golden! By the way, your laptop specs should be pretty good for Linux, but I'd still recommend testing things out for a while before committing fully.
