Highly recommend Pop OS! It's been very reliable. I haven't had anything this steady since Mac OS when I was just doing programming. I tried to go from Mac to Alienware for personal computing and it was terrible, windows blue screened almost once a week if not once every four days.

Switched to Pop OS, enabled Proton in steams preferences for gaming, and it was completely steady. Only thing that doesn't work is the hibernate. Which isn't a super big deal to me.

I'd actually say everything has been a better experience than windows. Lutris and pop store have a large variety of games and apps. For example lutris supports GOG and probably epic games. It feels like it's everything I'd want without the shitty user interfaces and lack of crashes.
