I used Linux in university also, and actually had LESS problems than my classmates - a few of our textbooks came with “homework” versions of industry software (made by the textbook writer, just coded to be good enough to learn some basic concepts and work with some provided example files) and for reasons unknown to man and beast, most of them worked better on wine than on Windows natively - for one, the “submit” button was basically off-screen on Windows but placed where you’d expect on wine, on another trying to connect to machines was a HUGE pain… Except the Linux networking interface had no issues haha.

I only switched because the forced upgrade to Windows 8 ate my first year midterm essays and I never forgave it.

I think they’d also have some old History Channel type content, back when it was like legit deep dive WW2 documentaries and shit.
