I just got a new PC and I'm considering switching to Linux as my operating system. I've only used Windows throughout my life, but I'm curious about trying Linux. I'm looking at options like Mint, Ubuntu, or Parrot because I want something that's beginner-friendly and can handle gaming well. Most of my time will be spent gaming and on university work, but I'm worried that some university projects might not work easily on Linux. I'd appreciate any advice or thoughts from the community!

You should definitely take Linux Mint for a spin! You can easily test it out using a Live USB, which lets you run it without installing anything on your PC. Just download the ISO from the Linux Mint site, burn it to a USB, boot from it, and you’re set! If you feel adventurous later on, you might want to check out different desktop environments or even dive into other distros like Debian. Have fun exploring!
Yeah, testing with a Live USB is a great idea! You can see if your hardware works well with it, which is super important
