overview for _dystopian

I remember dealing with similar issues with steam and snap versions of apps on my desktop with amd ryzen and radeon vii. I had to kinda go out of the way to make things work like what you said having to run steam from terminal. Everything ended up working I just had to do it the roundabout way and that was using Ubuntu 22.

I completed the install of Ubuntu 24 on my laptop earlier today and I used zfs instead of lvm and I've had absolutely no issues all day. I've installed all the apps I need and have been testing everything out with no problems. Also during the install I had it download the proprietary nvidia drivers which I'm assuming helped. Only problem I had was a crash while playing arc raiders but that could happen anytime using anything

I assumed the worst when it came down to swapping over to Linux on the laptop and to my surprise its been the easiest time I've ever had.

So I've already had experience with dual booting windows/Linux and using different types of Linux distros on their own as well as using virtual machines. I've gotten rid of windows on my desktop completely but my laptop still has windows 11 and is the only thing I own that uses windows at all anymore. Before I make the jump I wanted to see a couple peoples opinions because I'm no expert but I feel like its easier for things to go wrong when changing a laptop as opposed to a desktop.

Do I have anything to worry about? Is the process going to be basically the same? Will there be any "safeguards" in the laptop that try to prevent something like this?

The laptop is an Asus zenbook pro duo, 1tb ssd, 32gb ram, Intel i7, nvidia geforce rtx 3070. Just in case that has any effect on anything.

I don't eat all day then at 11pm I microwave some frozen thing or pickup halal or fast food. I want to eat better and more consistent but I can never get myself to cook or figure out recipes etc. I love the food I cook I usually make stuff that I really enjoy but its super hard to get myself to keep up with it all.
