If at all possible, I’d suggest trying Linux on a different computer, one that has none of your important data on it. Of course you should be doing regular backups of your data already. But beginners (and sometimes experts!) make mistakes and stuff gets deleted.

I started getting serious with Linux on a Raspberry Pi, and then got an inexpensive open box laptop from Best Buy.
