My primary OS is Windows (I use it for work) and I have Linux as my second OS. If I upgrade my linux distro to the paid version so I can have more features, will Windows be okay? Thanks I’m a newb

i may be wrong, but arent you paying for support, not features?
Ignoring Red Hat which according to the Software Freedom Conservancy organization are GPL violators.
But with Ubuntu it depends on whether you consider paid repositories features or support. Sure you can just compile it yourself but that’s kinda the same thing Zorin is doing: https://lemmy.world/post/29546682/17016426
That’s a lot of the reason you buy it, but RHEL is a paid product that you buy copies of.

It’s a paid product, but for personal use you’re only paying for the support or for the number of licenses. The most corporate of all distros offers full functionality for free unlike what op is asking for.

Is there any real benefit for a Linux normie here?
No.
RHEL binary distros are not available without a paid license (or a limited number of free personal licenses).
