Suit yourself, I don’t trust Windows already so, adding a third-party to that process doesn’t intrigue me in the slightest.

Paying Microsoft more money so they can give you less Windows is a very Microsoft thing to do.

You see, the joke is that “dual boot” means you have two drives/partitions you boot from.

“Duel boot” would imply your boot drives will take 10 paces apart from one another, turn, and shoot each other, one dying and the other emerging victorious.

Not who you asked but, Ubuntu is basically Linux from a corporation. They are forcing people to install ‘snaps’ instead of your typical .deb package. They are like flatpaks but way worse.

They have a database of packages on their site. This page also popped up with info on how packages are moderated and stuff too.

As a former Windows user, Chocolatey is a great way to get used to a package manager through Windows. I used it to install stuff like hwinfo or wiztree.

Everybody kept insulting his OS stack for bloat so… he uninstalled. Some say he still lurks on the boards from mobile, posting incoherently about “LFS” and “His own distro with blackjack and hookers.” Others say he’s still there compiling, waiting for the day he can open a browser.
