GNU (even polished distros) means you will have to invest a bit of time to understand some basic concepts about your hardware and the system if you want to configure correctly your PC and take advantage of all its functionalities. As you come from the Mac world, are you in this mood ? Or do you already have knowledge about lnux systems ? I am asking because numerous Mac user often prefer no brainers and out of the box experience rather than investesting time in that kind of stuff (which I fully understand). Note this is not difficult at all, but however it needs to spend some time if you are a newcomer.

I use a lot of Linux servers, including my own at home but it’s headless, so I’m pretty familiar but I’ve never used one as my own operating system. But I do prefer spending my free time working on projects and hobbies, rather than having to maintain my computer.
