I've spent 2 months transcribing an entire poorly written text book into a Google doc. I'm now taking that transcription and having chat gpt rewrite it all for readability. All so I can maybe pass certification exam.
The problem is less with us and more with academia having developed an highly oppressive way of writing things. But from my perspective it's just sloppy unreadable garbage.

I also use goblin tools for writing.
I do not know goblin tools... but soon I will
Just in case there are malicious clones of it out there, the official site is goblin.tools 👍

Tips for switching to Linux cause why not:
Don't... until you've switched to cross-platform software that you know fullfils your needs.
Use a live session for a few days, weeks, months, before you actually install it.
Don't expect it to act like Windows, it isn't
