Hi! I want to switch to linux but i never used it before and i want advice from you guys about the OS (what distro should i use and how to get started).

Try elementary OS or Ubuntu mate.

My personal favorite for desktop is Kubuntu

I'd say give Linux Mint a try!

Instinctively I'd suggest Ubuntu, but lately I have been using Antergos which I honestly find way easier to use. Only the support is harder to find but the arch wiki is freaking amazing.

The reason I'd suggest antergos is that since I made the switch I have never been looking for applications anymore. AUR has everything! Something I cannot say for Ubuntu's ppa.

Arch Linux. No discussion.
Try Antergos or arch-anywhere.

And definitely dual boot if you're into games and stuff!

@wolt What I meant was that Arch Linux is the best distribution in my opinion. No crap. No unnecessary stuff. Simply a clean Linux.

btw, Pacman is unbeatable compared to other package managers.

@tracktraps I will probably go with arch, but what is the difference betwen arch linux and arch anywhere?

@releaseHUN arch-anywhere is an installer for arch linux.

@tracktraps Ok thanks!

+1 for elementary os

Use any gnome desktop it helps better.

@iamsaurav any gnome desktop?

Try ubuntu @tracktraps

@iamsaurav For what? I have Arch Linux, that's enough.
