If it takes you 2 weeks to uninstall some crap and flick some settings, you better switch away from Windows. But I doubt Linux will be any different.
Maybe ChromeOS would be a better fit?
I'm really proud of the users in this community for not instantly ratioing comments that admit Linux has a learning curve and can be trouble prone with random bullshit especially with Nvidia.
I finally tried Linux. Tried three different Distros meant for beginners and it couldn't do the one thing I do most better than Windows. Gaming. Too many programs or overlay tools are Windows only. Compatibility programs rarely worked. Wine laughed in my face. Some Linux tools were also only compatible with other kernals.
I made the switch to have more control and felt like I left one series of cages for another.
For me gaming was the easiest thing to replace on Linux. Bazzite was painless and for me ran games with better performance. Since I use my gaming PC like a console HTPC I also have a way better experience with the more steam os like gaming mode it has over the standard big picture mode on windows, since I can now configure system settings within steam itself with my controller if I ever need to.
