I switched to Linux years ago. Tried 10 different distros. Top of list = Linux Lite 6.0, Mint 21.3, Xubuntu 24.04. All 3 are Ubuntu based and easy to transition from Windows. So, it really boils down to what "desktop" (GUI) you prefer. I like XFCE of Xubuntu - an official flavor of Ubuntu w/ 3 years of updates (LTS).

The only complaint I have with the Linux series is one of my clients uses AutoCad in their business (surveying) and Autodesk does not support it on Linux systems (although they do support it on Apple systems).

Wine and Wine Tricks I think it's called. Probably a few more programs that allow you to run Windoze programs on a Linux box. I've never tried AutoCad on Linux. Probably a Linux version of AutoCad out there???

Always the dual boot way as well. Windoze and Linux.

Run this. This will use the firewall and block them. You can also add in your routing table to direct the names to dev null. Also in browsing, don't use Chrome or Edge as they may have hidden spyware. Use Mosaic or Brave and get the extensions to block trackers, spyware, etc. Personally, I use ublock to block all utube adds- it works...
