It's been over a year since I switched to Linux full time - no dual booting. I've been playing games, making games, music, and videos, doing schoolwork, taking notes, and more, all with Linux software, and with very few issues.

It feels good to finally be free from windows. Anyone else exclusively use Linux? For how long?

Congrats! I am also using Linux 'fulltime'. I've been using computers since MSX and finally abandoned Windows as my primary OS in 2005. At work, I always keep a Windows machine around since we have an AD domain and have to keep supporting it, but Linux is great, even more so in the last 5 years when games are running 'almost' effortlessly.
If I can make a suggestion, check how you can contribute to your favorite distro. I've been helping out on Debian's pt-br translation team and it's very satisfying. I strongly recommend it!

I've made a couple contributions to a program I use a lot (xournal++). I've got lots of personal projects though and setting up a dev environment is a bit of a hassle. I have heard docker can by useful for that though so I might look into that for the future.
