So i have a gaming desktop that not the best or the newest. What takes up most of my drive space is games, updates, and software's. Im wondering if i should switch to linux and if linux will improve any performance for my main machine? If you believe i should switch what os should i go with or why or why not should i switch?

I mostly game and do mess with ollama/ai tools because i think that's cool. I want to do more things in the future but that might beyond my drive space?

What would you advise?

In the past certain distros were better for certain tasks, but not really anymore. The thing that separates distros is how they do package management and how many packages they have. All that's to say, just pick something easy to start with like Kubuntu, Mint, or Debian if you're ok with older software.

    Yeah but for a new user its nice to see how different groups configure linux out of the box. Once you know what you're doing you can tweak the distro to your liking but new users seem to search for a default they like and stick with it until comfortable.
