I switched my work laptop to Linux(Nixos+Gnome) as soon as I could after they announced they were going to be using an AI in the OS. Been loving it ever since, and the peace in knowing they aren’t spying on me as well is a really nice added benefit.
I jumped from windows to Pop-os (Ubuntu based) after my windows boot dive failed. The switch was surprisingly trouble free for me. A few minor teething issues here and there but otherwise fine
I already had some previous NixOS experience, so that might have made it a little bit easier, but other than that, it was pretty seamless. It has OneDrive, Teams in the Nix store, and then I use just the web browser version of Outlook, because it’s the exact same as the desktop version. Other than that, yeah, everything’s seamless.

How was jumping from windows to NixOS?
