I’m feeling more tired about Windows, and the reason I haven’t switched yet to Linux is because I need some programs that only exist on Windows. But, at this point, I’m focusing on ditching these programs and finding alternatives for them…
Last year, I experienced Linux Mint, but, at least on my PC, it feels clunky when I need to do some little video editions and I found it more stable on Windows.
However, I’m going to try again Linux distros with a virtual box, but I’m a little “”“scared”“” to move on again to Linux Mint since my last experience with editing videos.
I don’t need an extremely powerful program to make these editions. Olive, or something like that, suits me perfectly. So, in your opinion, which distro should I try on one virtual box for my daily use for these purposes?
Making a dual boot, from your point of view, is problematic? I see so many different opinions about dual boot, but at this time, I don’t know what to think.

I guess you never heard of GPU Passthrough… https://github.com/bryansteiner/gpu-passthrough-tutorial/
GPU passthrough requires two GPUs, a system with compatible components, a lot of caffeine and a lot of patience. Not something for someone who wants something that just works.
It only requires it if you want the host to have a gpu, too. Otherwise, single-gpu passthrough is very much possible
What I said especially applies for single GPU passthrough, minus the two GPU part, I say that because I’ve done that on Desktop.
Single GPU passthrough (for me) was a journey of misery where a series of bash scripts with crude busyloop synchronization kept me from having no display output and needing to restart my system to test my changes again.
It’s probably the last thing I’d recommend for someone who wants something that works, unless you know something I don’t.
And integrated GPU counts, so you could use the integrated one for the host and a discrete card for the guest.
I’m probably wrong, but isn’t supposed to work if my CPU have a iGPU and I have a GPU? I genuinely ask, I’m not sure.
His CPU has integrated graphics. He can do full passthrough.
Now, if he’s doing that with a Type 2 hypervisor, I suspect the performance will still be lackluster for video editing, if it’s even supported.
Which means he’s also going to have to learn to use KVM.
