My laptop came with win11 preinstalled... I used it like that for about 4 months. I can very confidently say installing Linux increased the battery duration of my laptop by about 20%.

I had a lot of the same issues you are stating until I switched over to fedora. I have an nvidia Optimus laptop and it was quite the pain until I installed fedora and used the proprietary drivers from rpm fusion. I use b9ttles and steam to run my games and I can play most of the games I want to. Even Wayland works nice. I am using the Plasma spin of Fedora 40. Hope you can find the solutions to your problems.
Protip, use Rufus to create the windows install stuck and disable all the telemetry if you want to.
Happy computing.
Windows people don't get async saves? Wtf. Where are the Spyware benifits?
What the fuck is local low? I don't understand. Local is Billy G's jizz... I get that... And Roaming is for poor plebs. But why LocalLow? Is it like cache? But I have seens games saving their save files there. I don't understand
So sweat profusely
Azula is a pretty good depiction of a meth head to be honest, acute and energetic at their highest, but go crazy on the down
Maybe OPs Chakra flow was unstable when operating the machine
I genuinely do. I can't even imagine why anybody would use software whose source code isn't visible. Not cool.
For professional work cases, Linux is a very good choice. You don't need to pay for the corporate windows licences and security is overall better than windows since security by obscurity is a no no which windows intends.
Try going with a solid distro. Use mint or fedora. I would recommend you use the KDE desktop environment as it is very sleek and matches the windows look.
As for your video codec issue, if you are using distros which "respect" American patent laws, use the world wide versions. For example in Fedora, you must install the free world versions.
And the most important tip for you switching to Linux, ask questions and read up if you get stuck on something, however trivial you might think the issue is. The community is very open and very supportive.
Good luck all your endeavours :)
I got tired of all this B's long time ago and just resorted to torrenting. I missed the series management and resume feature so I coded a app to do it.

Man i remember. I have 16GB And running windows I would run out of ram so fast. Now on linux, I feel like I am unable to push the usage beyond 8GB in my regular workflow. I also switched to neovim from vscode, Firefox from Chrome and now only when I compile rust does my ram see any usage peaks.
