I've been using this hp gaming laptop with win10 since 2 years ago with an old dumb LG screen for coding/emulate (35%) or gaming (25%) and other 40% without the 2nd screen (browsing/documents).
I've used fedora/red hat in university but it was almost 10 years ago for specific software (emu/simulators) so I'm kind of noob in general terms and I'm afraid I'll be leaving dual boot just in case.
I've read some posts before about out of the box distros (because the nvidia gtx 1650ti mainly) but I'm not sure if I should go for bazzite or cachyos or opensuse tumbleweed or a better distro that fits great in my case and about desktop, KDE (plasma) is my choice at the moment.
Thanks in advance.
Edit: I appreciate your comments and warnings (mainly about arch/gaming based distros and other tips).
I didn't want controversy but I use that laptop for almost everything at home and I'm realizing that I need to invest more time both learning and extracting backups because the machine is limited and I'm willing to become a full linux user in the mid term.
I was thinking almost the same but in addition I'd add the whole Cold War, because from the URSS, the KGB used to do analog things but IMO with less effectiveness and judged more harshly, maybe because the International agreement were naive and powerless against the USA.
