    Can you have both? I might want to use certain paid apps that might be less replaceable or other “Apple” stuff but wanna have the option to experiment with Linux too since I’ve never used it previously

    Edit: I’ve heard the term dual-boot, that’s ringing a bell perhaps

      Yes. You can have more than one storage device, or partition a single one, and install more than one operating system. At startup, a bootloader like grub can then be used to choose which one you want to load into.
