I’m considering installing Linux on my laptop but I’m unsure if I should start with a virtual machine first. My main use cases are gaming and coding, so I want to make sure it’s the right fit.
What are the pros and cons of using Linux for someone like me? Would starting with VirtualBox be a good idea before going all in?
Do you do that coding for a company, like for a job? I managed a team of .NET developers for a while, and although I don’t know anything about C#, much less Windows, it sounded almost impossible to do any Enterprise development without pulling in a .NET framework. I think I did once try to compile one of our applications on Linux, and got stuck on a dependency that was only available on Windows.
