I tried switching a few days ago but the performance was so awful for some reason, ended up having to switch back (linux mint)

Sounds like something went wrong with the installation. Mint is overall more performant than windows. What slowed down?

Similar with me, but Kubuntu. Installed Steam and started downloading some games, and the whole system became almost unusable until it had finished. Also I put some music on (YouTube), and the audio was slightly slowing down and speeding up.

I have used Linux for decades for servers, and I really want to move to Desktop Linux, but at least once a year I try and there is some major issue that stops me.
