@opensource l am completely new in the world of Linux. I wish to build up a computer having Proxmox, MX Linux and casa os, also retaining windows.

Can you please guide me in the process, how to start building one right from the scratch ?

    Why do you believe windows is required to stay connected with the world? Are there specific applications you believe can only run on windows or for which you believe there is no alternative?

    Just in case, you can have a look at https://alternativeto.net/ , input your windows application and find opensource alternatives that run on Linux. You can make a list and double check with the community here.

    I ask because there might be a possibility for you to go full Linux. It depends on your requirements.

        Have you tried LibreOffice or OnlyOffice? Also, are you paying for Microsoft office? If so, you should be able to use it in the browser, which of course works on Linux too.

        I’m curious though, who are you exchanging word documents with? If these are friends, you can tell them to save as .ods or export as PDF (which is better for read-only anyway).
