I get better performance on Linux than Windows.
The significantly lower system overhead more than makes up for the translation layer.
I mostly game on Steam, occasionally Lutris. The only thing that just plain wouldn’t work was Control from Gog - I probably could have gotten it to work if I played with the configuration. But I didn’t really care that much.
Do not dban an SSD.
SSDs do not physically store data the way platter drives do. It may reduce the lifespan of the drive.
There are other methods for securely erasing SSDs.

Depends on the mods.
So he posted misinformation that attacked arabic speakers, and the post got taken down?
I don’t see the problem.
Funny how Argentina never thinks to ask the people who actually live there.
Send the video to the vet. Ask them if it is an emergency. Don’t wait.
Coughing in cats can be a sign of major heart issues. Cats rarely cough if they are simply congested.
If the problem was just congestion, they would probably be sneezing more, and possibly breathing through their mouth.
I’m not a vet, but I’ve had two cats with heart issues. One of them also had seasonal allergies. So I do have first-hand experience with these kinds of symptoms. That’s why I say to contact the vet and share the video now.
Can you really call it a bombshell when they’re doing it out in the open? And everybody can see they are doing it? And they are in no way trying to hide it or justify their actions?
See, you say that as a Linux user.
Ordinary folks don’t talk or think like Linux people. Nobody understands what a “process” is, let alone what a container is or what isolation means.
And if somebody is used to “pres butan get bacon” anything else is going to sound like gobbledygook.
Also: a modern distro running gnome or KDE is harder to screw up. Folks don’t need to use clunky package managers like Synaptics. As a result, they are less likely to break things.
They’ve been doing this for probably as long as they’ve been in business.
Chuwi has been around for a long time.
I don’t believe the word “trust” has ever been used to describe that company.
That’s totally a thing Albert would say.
Silly Al.
It’s also not worth my time or money to track down old, beat-up Chromebooks and put Linux on them, and yet here we are.
I’m weird, so the things I find fun are weird.
I look forward to thrifting one in a few years, then installing Linux on it.
Attempted satiation of the curse. Probably.
Oh yeah, totally correct. But it bills itself as a “gaming distro.”
You’ve already gotten several good replies, and I’ll add a couple more details that might be related to your use case:
Bazzite is a “gaming distro” with built-in Steam integrations. It’s great if all you do on the machine is game and do gaming-related things, like streaming. It’s what I use on my dedicated gaming PC, under my TV. Things mostly Just Work, and I’ve only had to mess with configuration files when setting up things like wake-on-USB and my custom Network shares.
Gaming and streaming will work on basically any distro. And if you pick a distro based on Debian or Fedora, it should be stable and fairly easy to get used to.
Don’t wipe out Windows yet. Install Linux on a separate partition, or even better a separate drive. That way, you can switch off between them until you’re fully used to Linux. Let yourself transition over a few months. That way, if you struggle to do something in Linux, you can switch back over to Windows and get it done.
Some folks try to change all at once, then get frustrated if they hit a stumbling block. It’s safer to keep Windows as a backup, so you don’t feel trapped if something goes wrong.
It’s not that they aren’t as good, necessarily.
More that the others do less “grey-hat” stuff, and therefore are less likely to cause harm or alter the content they host.
