I’m using virtual box to try it out. I went with Linux linux mint cinnamon and it’s running great. Any program suggestions to try out or any general advice?

This is excellent advice, and I want to stress that linux on bare metal will let you see just how much better it is. It’ll fly. You really don’t get a sense of how much be there is in windows till you run linux on the same hardware.
Especially Wayland DEs ^((User interfaces, that run on the new rendering engine; the default “look” of Linux Mint can’t utilize that yet)) will perform much different on a real install.
On a VM, the screen tears a lot and it will perform sluggish, while on bare metal, it will be suuuper smooth and also give you (on Gnome ^((one of the two most popular desktop environments)) ) access to the best touchpad gestures out there, even better than MacOS.
