Comfort is a big reason. But if you have a sacrificial used laptop and start familiarise yourself with it.
I started using Linux a few years ago, and from bottom of my heart advise you don’t touch Arch (CachyOS) with a 10 feet pole. You need experience to differentiate bullshit solutions when you search forums. For example I just saw a thread saying you need to modify kernel modules if you want to change the touchpad sensitivity of a wireless keyboard.
I also advise you against Nobara, just use Fedora KDE. Because it’s unofficially maintained often breaks or just bugs after large updates. As a novice It was easier for me just to reinstall than fix.
That’s why I am very wary of CachyOS. Been on lemmy for some time now and amount of people saying to not touch Arch…heh.
But Nobara felt safe and right for my use case. Kinda sad it isn’t so.
I am trying to install headless debian on old laptop for hosting right now and…I mean I tried to go with gui and laptop had so muc h lag it wasn’t even funny. But again, me being lazy gets in the way. And me losing my only pendrive too.
