Steamos 3.8 beta on Legion Go, everything is working out so far.

It's amazing how drastic some things change. I transferred some files that would have taken windows about 5min, it only took 20sec.

Plenty of resources, space on the drive, still getting used to the differences of UI and settings, but I'm so glad I finally jumped out the window.

In my opinion, despite having to "re-learn" when switching to linux, it was more like actually learning useful stuff and now in comparison, windows feels like one of those plastic toy computers for children with sounds and a sticker for a screen.

Welcome to linux! You are now the proud owner of a real computer

This is a really good point. You never have to relearn a new workaround when some exec purposely destroys a feature after their spiritual advisor recommended it.
