I don't want to support microsoft and I don't want them controlling my computer.

Pros and cons of ditching them?

Any guides or tutorials or the process?

Any advice is appreciated!

I like Pop too.

For most things it’s Ubuntu, which is widely supported. On top of Ubuntu it has a modified Gnome Shell desktop and the modifications are actually sensible improvements. It’s still Gnome Shell, so it supports everything Gnome and Gnome Shell do. They also improve a few things under the hood; mostly for the hardware sold by System76, but some general stuff too.
