Due to circumstances outside of my control, I will have to give up my Macbook pro and move to a 5 year old Lenovo thinkpad very soon. I am now considering whether to use Windows + WSL or to directly install a Linux distribution (Ubuntu probably).

My laptop time can be decomposed into Julia (25%), internet browsing (30%), gaming on GeForceNOW (30%), TeX + other programming languages on VSCode (15%).

Did you people have to go through a similar choice recently? What were/are your thoughts?
