Ubuntu and Linux Mint are ideal for people who just want to ignore the OS and get work done.
If you are a Dev you should be clear of such problem, unless you need a very specific tool, but, many people can’t switch because the programs they work with are not supported on Linux. Take a look into that, and in the worst case scenario you can dual boot windows.
Gaming wise proton is a bless and let’s you play most games, check protonDB for compability. Major portion of the games that don’t work are due to crappy anticheat solutions.
Good luck, any other questions feel free to ask.
