Yo does anyone have like a "let's download linux" guide aimed at bimbo girlies like me

  1. Download Nobara OS (Linux distro optimized for gaming by default)

  2. Set up dual boot with both Linux/Nobara and Windows so you can boot into either.

You can just delete windows entirely later if you find yourself not using it. That's what I ended up doing after a few months of dual booting.

Ty! Haven't looked at the links yet; to save my old shit do I need to get a hard drive or will everything just be normal?

This is duel booting so you don't need to backup anything

Like the others said, dual-booting means you'll keep windows and your files... But you should still always be backing up at least your important files regardless tbh
