Before installing Linux, I had originally planned to dual-boot on my main PC, but somehow a gaming rig from 5 years ago isn’t good enough to run windows 11, which is ridiculous.

    I have a win10 PC with an extra hard drive on which I’ve installed Arch on. I’m thinking of deleting the Windows partition for extra storage on my Arch side because my CPU doesn’t support Win11, apparently. Is there anything I should be careful of before I go forward with my plan other than backing up data and the usual hardware compatibility issues when only using Linux?

        Haha, damn. Sorry.

        I dunno why, but when I decided to try Linux six months ago, I just went with Arch and every other day I regret my choice. I’m too invested now and I do like tinkering.

          Damn, that’s one hell of a learning curve. I struggled with doing the most basic stuff on Linux Mint. Theres qpno way I would have been able to handle arch as my first install.
