Yeah that was about my experience from switching as well 😭. It’s absolutely worth it, but god damn if there aren’t moments where I want to rip my hair out troubleshooting some issue that’s just plug and play on windows.
Is it? I switched ten years ago, and I had to switch back in two years. And even this year, I couldn’t even finish writing my plugin on Linux because support for the software I needed is still lacking.
I keep hearing about this “software I need” but never any examples, I’m genuinely curious as I really don’t know of many things that you can’t at least use a VM for
Figma for Linux is unable to properly load fonts and the issue has been open since last year. I don’t have a system capable of ruining a VM without consuming a lot of power or taking a significant performance hit.
Also, anticheat is not supported for League and I’m currently enjoying the hell out of ARAM Mayhem.
I don’t share details, because when I do, people go, “well why don’t you just do X” and it’s the clunkiest solution one can use or straight up become condescending as if I haven’t tried what they’re saying.
But if you switch to Linux you can come here and proselytize to the userbase in just a out anything thread, regardless of topic. Doesn’t that sound better than using your software?
Posting about Windows on Lemmy only to get “switch to Linux” in the comments:

I feel like that would cause the devs to implement a max downvote limit.
Let’s get that 64bit overflow.
I’m certain that you could fix this issue by switching to Linux.
Can confirm, i used to have that same exact issue but it went away when i switched to linux
I use arch btw
Yup, I had a whole different set of issues to fix when I switched to Linux. 😅

They wouldn’t be suggesting it if you used Linux
That sounds like good advice, you should take it.

It’s easier to ignore asshole comment sections than an asshole OS.
Here, enjoy this stew.
I’ve been probably saying that for longer than you have been alive
