Okay thank you! Do you know of a good list of Linux compatible alternatives to Windows software? I'm sure I can track some down but may want to get familiar before making the jump like you said.

Thank you for the response!
I don't play it a ton, but didn't want to completely lose the possibility of playing especially when friends or young family members come to visit.
Okay will do!
What made you want to change to KDE? Was it an issue with Mint's (Cinnamon?) that made you want to change?
Okay that makes sense. Thanks!
Okay I'll try out a few and keep notes on which ones I prefer until I make that "final" decision.
Yes dual booting seems to be the way to go for a while so I've got my toes in the water but not lost the safety net just yet!
Yeah that's what has made me apprehensive to be honest. I feel pretty comfortable in windows doing many things, and my wife has a MacBook that I'm also pretty comfortable using so learning a new, third OS does seem obtuse. I like the idea of having more control over the software, but don't want to lose the "it just works" feeling of an OS or software I am used to using.
Thanks for the link!
Thank you for the suggestion!
Do most distributions not have those things? I imagined a taskbar/search/options to be pretty standardized and having the option for desktop with icons at least.
