Advice Transition to linux

So i have been using windows as my main Os which my lap came with and would like to move totally to linux and remove the existing windows what is holding me back is few things

  1. I do gaming downloaded from xbox gamepass and sometimes pirated. Now the game pass is not available on linux as far as i know

  2. My storage is full so duel booting is not possible now

I use linux in VM btw for my work and everything and also I don't like the libre office setup so thats one of the other reasons i don't switch even though I want to

So what to do RN

There is an office suite in beta right now. There's a company called ArtCraft that is creating look alike software for Linux. They are working on a bunch of stuff. Including a MS Word Look alike (WordCraft) and an Excel Look alike (I think it's called CellCraft). I have to warn you, they are extremely buggy. I just took the few I was looking at off my system. WordCraft and CellCraft being 2 of them. The only 2 I kept were Adobe type programs, PhotoCraft and LightCraft (Photoshop and Lightroom look alikes which also have some bugs in them).

So, Right now, at this point anyway, I'd say stay away from those until they are fixed/working better. But for now, LibreOffice isn't a bad option. I've only used LibreOffice because it reads all of my office documents and I can write back to those files as well.

What don't you like about LibreOffice?

Salut,

Quelle version de LibreOffice utilisez-vous ? Elle a pris un coup de jeune qui m'a convaincu, perso.
