Rat :
Bare metal isn't that scary. Just reinstall windows if you don't like it. Dual booting (in my experience) is more hazardous than committing to Linux.

Doesn't virtual machine have the problem that the windows bloatware is still running in the background?

I moved from Linux to windows just for photoshop and instantly regretted it. Now I’m back on Arch with a Mac for photoshop. It’s clear I will do anything to avoid windows 😆

Dual booting is still running on bare metal. There's still nothing running between linux and your hardware when you boot into linux.

Bare metal. Don't have windows anymore. The way I learned Linux was to remove my windows drive and install it separately on another drive. That way I couldn't run away to windows at the first roadblock or hurdle. Been there since (6 years) and haven't looked back.

Bare metal 100%.
1. saves some older or second hand laptops from becoming e-waste when they still have life in them.
2. if you keep the flash drive with the iso on it, if (or when) you make a mistake you can just do a new fresh install and try again.
3. distro hopping is more fun comparing them side by side

Bare metal for me. Linux is a way for me to re-purpuse old desktops. But I am more and more leaning to have it on my main.
