Take a note of the programs you use on a daily, weekly and monthly basis.
Search if they have linux versions or alternatives (don’t need to go crazy on open source or anything)
Choose a Distro suitable for your hardware (some distros are tailored towards revival of old stuff and may be missing drivers for recent hardware, and some distros are tailored towards bleeding edge stuff and may be missing drivers for old stuff)
For most standard scenarios (pcs less than 10 years old) there are a ton of guides out there that rank the distros according to user-friendliness
A mindset tip: don’t try to mimic windows stuff, for example, in the linux world it is not very common to “download an installer from the web and click it to install software”, so there is a ton to learn

This is good advice, thank you! I’m mostly using my machine for Games, thanks to proton and wine my main concern are just the drivers for my Hardware
