Freedom to do whatever you want, however you want. Including brick your computer.
But honestly, modern distros are really smooth feeling. If you slapped Mint on just about any computer today it will run better and longer, and you’ll quickly find that it’s just as easy - if not easier - to use as Windows or MacOS.
Also its worth noting that MacOS and Linux share genetics that don’t really matter to 99% of users, but if you want your Linux to look and feel like a Mac, you can do that very very easily.
Also the KDE Plasma DE is super fun and I’m addicted to it now
