Linux bros have been told this for literally decades. They'll never get it. As long as I can't use my air pods or even the built in fingerprint reader for my laptop, plug and play, I won't even try making the switch.
Linux is serverware with a barely working GUI and people are still talking about "just switch".
My airpods and fingerprint reader (framework 16) work fine on Fedora, sometimes it just be like that.
Linux is everywhere and doing everything already. Windows only continues to exist because business majors are in charge and they are fucking dumb.
Did you give it a try recently?
I agree with the first part of what you said, but I disagree with your last sentence.
I have been using Linux on my desktop PCs and laptops since 2017 and it's been working great for me, even playing games. Honestly, I probably play more games on Linux than I did back when I was on Windows lol
