    You have left! (?) (thinking…)
    How important is this to you?

    I can understand why some users are considering moving from macOS to Linux, especially for better customization and more control over the operating system. The main thing I’d check first is hardware compatibility, particularly if your setup depends on DisplayLink docks and multiple external monitors.

    Linux support has improved considerably, but the experience can still vary depending on the distribution, kernel, DisplayLink driver, and desktop environment. If multiple monitors are important to your workflow, I’d test the exact dock and monitor combination before completely switching away from macOS.

    For me, the decision would mainly depend on whether the applications and hardware I use every day work reliably on Linux. If they do, Linux can be a great alternative. Otherwise, dual-booting or keeping a separate Linux installation may be a better way to experiment without disrupting your main setup.

    Once everything is configured properly, even simple browser activities like [brickbreaker.io](https://brickbreaker.io/) should work without any issues.
