That doesn't sound like a tough choice at all...

seriously i just deleted windows and put mint on my laptop (which is only like from 2020ish) and it runs better than it ever did on windows

Yeah, both my Linux PC's probably wouldn't even run Win 10, let alone Win 11. As long as they work, pretty much any PC from the last decade can still run any distro and be sufficient to do any kind of productivity workload.
