Honestly, it's my assessment of turning my only PC, which is primarily gaming, into a Linux machine and the struggles there with day-to-day usage. I have no idea what OP's comfort level with Linux or tech is in general but my assumption is it's enough to think "Yeah, I could install Linux and do this." which was where I was at too. Nothing I'm doing was exotic but the investment required in finding suitable alternatives that worked nearly out of the box was too high at the time.

Gaming was decent by all accounts. I think I had a few compatibility items that will iron out as developers support Linux more and the technology that enables gaming on Linux just gets better and better. I have an AMD card and from what I gather that's better for switching to Linux. A lot of my frustrations were not related to gaming and I recognize the issue is time and knowledge on my part. If those are in short supply when something breaks, you could have a bad time is all I'm saying. Everyone's got to start out somewhere and if you've had Windows forever, it can be a mental shift.
