You will potentially get very mixed results on Linux, I'm just going to be straight with people because I wish Linux was everything Linux autists said it was. I've managed to successfully run open source on everything except my OS lol, I don't know whether it's the hardware lottery or what. However your mileage will vary when you try and install a distro, just make sure to have backups if you do try it and be aware that partitioning is easily one of the most pain in the arse aspects of Linux.

This isn't meant to dissuade anyone from trying Linux obviously, I feel like people aren't always honest about the realities of it or they get extremely lucky and then wonder why everybody else is having endless problems. Otherwise I would have switched to Linux years ago, as it stands it's still easier to bork the Windows spyware behaviour for me than it is to get Linux running.
