Agreed but you do need to be willing to tinker a bit. Even ubuntu required a lot of tinkering to get working on my system. I'm all for getting people to switch, and it's much easier than it was 15 years ago when I started, but for most people they're not going to just install linux. We definitely are in the <1% of users.
You need to mention that NVIDIA GPU is the problem for Linux usage, and even then, just install Nobara (made by Steam's Proton creator) or Garuda which takes care of everything related to NVIDIA GPU better than Ubuntu/Debian non-free firmware would. There is NO issue with Intel/AMD CPU and AMD GPU machines with installing any mainstream Linux distribution. No tinkering needed.
