Hello everyone

You probably heard and answered this a hundred times already but I’m a bit overwhelmed by everything when I start searching by myself online. Even more so when I’m not fully sure what I’m even looking for.

I want to switch to Linux but I don’t really know where to start and also I’m a bit scared to abandon Windows which I have been using for 20+ years now. Could you recommend me sources for absolute beginners (English or German) and/or give me tips and pointers?

Edit:

Thank you all for your help!

I got it working with a dual-boot from a USB and it’s way easier than I feared. Next step is to get an external drive and get serious.

    I know it’s a bit vague but I really wasn’t sure where to start, sorry about that.

    But I’m going to try Mint and dual boot for now and then I probably can come back with more precise questions.

    Thank you :)
