I'd like to hear people's journeys and motivations from people who switched over the last few months, and if there were particular challenges that were faced.

I have converted a few friends and family in the last few months. Mostly to Bazzite, but one opted for Fedora. Both good choices, and everyone seems very happy with what they chose.

Glad it has worked out. Over the years I've been free tech support for my close friends and family whom I've installed Linux for (I'm fine with it because it had been my hobby, passion, and suggestion for them). I hope you've not been inundated with support requests.
