No need to. GNU/Linux is decidedly multilingual :-)

I'm a big fan of LaTeX myself, but I fear this advise will send
the original poster down the wrong rabbit hole. Note how Markos
asked for tips on *typing* Chinese, not on *typesetting* Chinese?

And how he hinted at his familiarity with LibreOffice?

So I think what he needs is a suitable input method and suitable
display (and later perhaps print) fonts.

He'll need that anyway should he ever decide to go with LaTeX:
somehow the texts have to first go in :-)
