If you have plenty of storage I would do it. Some wine applications love to stall my system and a large swap helps a bunch.

I’d have a swap file that is 2x your memory.
Most people in the Linux community are none of the above.
Compiling anything is a minority group even in the Linux community. Sounds like a massive headache.
Have had Windows remove my Grub entry plenty of times but have also had Windows “repair” partitions after a failed update which will nuke your Linux install.
I get where you’re coming from, really. I’ve been disappointed by Linux for years with the learning curve and random errors that no one can help with. I’d take a long break from anything server related and then once you think your ready to come back, go watch some videos that give you inspiration like Techno Tim. Try to make a game plan and stick to it. Use standard stuff like Debian and Proxmox for software and to get a head start try this. Wish you all the best mate.
I’ve been using that bad boy for about 3 years continuously in my server and 1 year in my desktop. Surprised it hasn’t died on me yet, lol.
