Many people bounce back to Windows after their first attempt at running Linux.

this was me from Vista to 10, swore every time i'd do it, endless dual boots with Ubuntu that lasted a couple days.

3 years ago with 11 looming, I took the plunge and grabbed a new nvme, installed Mint, made sure it booted and I could use FF, then reformatted my Windows drive and installed LMDE and have been using that ever since. The rest of it I just muddled through, mostly still muddling though.

First Windows was 3.1 at work, MS Dos prior to that both on top of Netware as the default IT guy but used an Amiga 1200 at home (from a C64, to Amiga 1000 to 1200.

The CLI is bullshit as the default for near everything, it's not 1990 anymore. It should be there but eg the dick around I had installing Signal on my desktop as the Flatpak is some not authorized version , same with my VPN, what a fuck around needing Nord themselves to diagnose it, having the default boot drive fill up with what seems like a zillion kernels and need to delete them on my laptop etc etc

still have zero chance of going back to Windows but I get the ipad generation steering away from Linux.
