    Why wait, do it now.

    I jumped ship to Linux when Win 7 died, cause I’d rather be fucked by a rusty fencepost than be forced to use 10, and 11 is right out.

      Looking to move an older Windows 7 laptop to Linux this week, any suggestions? Feels like there’s so much.

          I agree with every point you make except for the desktop environment front end.

          While it is nice to install a distro with a given desktop environment OOTB, you can always change it, and even have multiple ones installed at the same time. This is typically a better approach to testing out desktop environments because you don’t have to reinstall every time.
