Need Suggestion and Help !!

I have zero knowledge about Linux.

I want to switch to Linux and want some help and suggestions for it.

Laptop : Lenovo IdeaPad 330 (5 year old) , No SSD, 1TB HDD, 8GB RAM, somehow paused updates for 20 years

Usage - Browsing, Movies , Coding. That's it. Occassionally editing videos.

My laptop feels very slow and too much ....I want something lightweight and simplistic.. Thinking of using LinuxMint

I have read that dual booting is an option, but some say that it can cause problems.

Some say that completely switching to Linux can cause some issues.

personally I like the dual boot option....

Need help on how to do this and what are things I need to keep in mind and what is the process of it all.

Any and every suggestion would be helpful.
