Software that runs under Linux.

If you're curious about Linux I suggest you give it a go! The easiest way is to create what's called a live CD, which lets you try an operating system without having to install anything: you reboot your computer and run it straight from a USB or disc drive.

Three distributions I would recommend for beginners are Linux mint, KDE Neon, and EndeavourOS. Distro. choice is not super important though, just pick one you like the look of. It's not much hassle to change later.
