I keep trying to swap but I found what im good at finally and it is bricking linux installs.
If you haven’t already, try an atomic distro and see if that works better for you. I had the same problem and never could stay on Linux longer than 3-6 months before something broke (fucking Nvidia) and I went back. I’ve been running Bazzite (gaming spin of fedora blue) that comes with graphics and steam baked in, which solves 80% of the deal breakers I run into. Been solid for about a year now, and works great for me.

Switch to Windows LTSC. Doesn’t have copilot, no store, no onedrive, no candy crush and tiktok on a fresh install, and no need to figure out an account bypass.
Its the closest thing to what Windows was up to Windows 7 of a boring OS that you use to launch programs without it trying to be helpful or encourage you to login to an account.

Can this swap be done live, or does it need to be on a fresh install??
I have Jellyfin/arr stack/Immich PC on win 11 and I freaking hate it, but dread swapping everything over to Linux

I do believe it requires a fresh install, similar to switching from Windows pro to home versions for example.

Keep making note of it and keep forgetting til I have everything setup just right again. Thanks!
