Not all distros are that hard to get into. I personally don't care one way or another as long as you're comfortable with your OS, but it'd be worth giving Linux a try at some point. Mint Linux or PopOS! are both good options for entry level Linux (but not limited to just entry level).

I'm switch to Linux soon just this type of thing turns me away because I have no idea what mounting a drive means much less how to do it and things like gnu, kernel and running on like directly typed instructions are alien to me.
