I'm considering installing Linux on my laptop but I'm unsure if I should start with a virtual machine first. My main use cases are gaming and coding, so I want to make sure it's the right fit.

What are the pros and cons of using Linux for someone like me? Would starting with VirtualBox be a good idea before going all in?

Might've been, but I don't remember it being so red. I'm on mobile right now though, and my PC browser loads everything in dark mode, maybe the colors were affected.

In any case, the site my buddy showed me ranked games according to performance just like that one so that one would still be useful.
