It would probably take having someone sit down and help me switch and teach me the basics, and the guarantee that I wouldn't lose access to any of my games or important programs. Also less bloatware would be beneficial, idk if that's true of Linux, I don't know much about it.

    I've found that 90% of users probably wouldn't have a difficult time using Linux as their new OS. The problems usually show up when needing to use terminal or when specific software companies don't support Linux.

    The average user that just browses the internet and uses basic office apps most likely wouldn't have any issues.

    Find an old PC lying around your home swap the drive out or create a separate partition, there are plenty of YouTube videos out there. Worst case you waste an afternoon.
