longshots but then I also miss many of the options that are available with Windows - games, any Office app, etc.
I have great news: Ever since the Steam Deck became popular, gaming on Linux is pretty much no problem and sometimes even more performant due to the Proton translation layer hitting less on the game's performance than a bloated Windows. You might want to look into Nobara, Bazzite vor HoloISO (or just install Fedora and add the gaming components such as Steam and GPU drivers). Over 80% of games work already on Linux, many of them better than anywhere else (especially classic titles and emulation).
As for Office, LibreOffice is usual the default choice. If you need the best Microsoft Office compatibility, I recommend OnlyOffice. And of course there's always Google Docs, Sheets and Slides if you need seamless interoperability for every OS.
There are still a lot of inconveniences when it comes to Linux, like video editing for example. But on the other hand there is excellent software that works best on Linux, like LibreWolf or GIMP. In the end everyone needs to find their best answer. What I personally like most about Linux is the control and ownership I have compared to MacOS, ChromeOS and Windows.
longshots Your biggest problem will be if you decide to go to Linux what will your choice of Linux distribution be?
Not really... Are there thousands of choices? Yes, but if security and privacy are your main concerns (which is quite common on this forum), the same few distributions are recommended. But why would the freedom to choose the best OS for your individual needs be a problem? Microsoft, Google and Apple give us exactly one choice, and for most people that choice can't be ideal as we are all vastly different. And it doesn't help that all of these 3 include data harvesting that is impossible to fully escape...
