I'm afraid as I am on my backup computer, and I worry that if I try to change over I will not do it correctly as has been the case every single time I've tried to download a program to accept zip files, or torrents I don't know what my deal is.
I really do want to switch over, I am working on fixing my better computer. More than anything I want a graphene OS phone.
Good that you want to switch, take your time, don't be afraid. There are many resources online for how to switch without accidentally deleting or losing access to things. I have been using Linux Mint for over a year now switching from Windows 10 and I haven't run into any limitations or issues. It's been a great learning experience and has overall lead to me being more technologically savvy. If you have any questions there are many places to discuss, feel free to ask.
