For those about to switch, welcome to Linux! If you have AMD hardware give Linux Mint a shot. If you have NVIDIA, Pop!_OS is worth your first install.

Me, with an AMD CPU and Nvidia GPU, who is expecting to maybe upgrade to an Intel GPU this year and swap to Linux: visible confusion

We truly do live in the weirdest timeline.

I would just worry about GPU drivers honestly, Intel seems to be doing fine on Linux for the most part.

Yeah, it's really the fact that I am even saying that I might have a system with an AMD CPU and an Intel GPU running Linux that throws me for a loop. I'm pretty sure I can learn to handle any of that, but that is certainly not a sentence I would've expected myself to say 10 years ago.
