Thinking on switching to linux
Thinking on switching to linux


Approaching the end of window 10 and have no plans on upgrading to 11.
I am trying to find alternatives to applications I regularly use before jumping ship (it is mostly a gaming focused pc) any suggestions?
There’s oculus software for my vr but don’t know what I’m going to do with that
Small update: probably going to do Linux mint as that appears to be the most beginner friendly
Update two: that's a lot of comments, and Thanks for all the info

PyCharm is cross-platform, so you can use it on Linux.
10 0 ReplyIdk why everyone says python is native to Linux. Pycharm is an IDE. It has nothing to do with a preinstalled python instance.
1 0 ReplyIt is somewhat related, I’m sure installing pyCharm on windows also provides Python. But yeah, not everyone wants to use a plain text editor.
2 0 ReplyOP is asking how to install an IDE. People are telling him Python is preinstalled. It’s like someone asking for a terminal emulator and people saying „but zsh is installed“. It’s being obtuse, is what it is.
3 0 ReplyEehhhh… OP didn’t give any details. Maybe they want an IDE, maybe they think that pyCharm is needed in order to use Python.
I have no idea which they meant, but people make assumptions.

Yes, and in fact, the complete jetbrains toolbox works fine on Linux. Setup is commonly done by simply unzipping an archive.
