I finally had enough about a year ago and decided to bite the bullet and just install Linux. I honestly expected to run into all kinds of problems, particularly since I primarily use my desktop for gaming, but I've been very surprised how few problems I've actually had. It's certainly not been completely problem free, but I wouldn't say I've encountered more problems with Linux than I have in Windows. Different problems for sure, but not more, and honestly about equally difficult to fix.
I feel like there's more options to fix things in Linux. On windows it felt someone's your just got a brick wall with an issue just because Windows want designed around the fix you envisioned.
What distro are you using? I really wanna take the leap and have the same worries
Linux mint for the first timers or UBUNTU is the safest
Linux Mint Cinnamon is very low friction to install and use for first timers from Windows
So that's a difficult question to answer. I've actually used Linux dual boot off and on a bunch of times over the years, but I've always kept my main desktop on Windows because as I said it's my gaming system. I've tried a bunch of distros and they all involve tradeoffs.
My personal favorite is any Arch based distro because it's usually easy to get up to date versions of anything you need. The flip side of that though is that it can be more unstable and fixing things when they break is often a bit more technical. The install process can also be a bit intimidating for a newcomer (although it's really not that hard). I'm currently using Garuda which is a gaming focused version of Arch.
On the more traditional side you've got a lot of options. Mint is a popular recommendation for newcomers. I think Pop!_OS is also a really good option despite the really unfortunate experience Linus (Sebastian not Torvalds) had when trying it out.
About the only things I'd recommend staying away from would be Gentoo (nobody has time for that), NixOS (cool in theory, a nightmare to actually daily drive), and pretty much anything Fedora based (I've had lots of problems with RPM based distros in the past and libraries and programs are often many versions behind).
I have a mini PC that I dual boot (separate drives), but struggle with Linux on it, I have a couple other systems running Linux (Mint), and since it only streams Jellyfin I just don't put the effort into the full switch. Biggest concern is my with comp, but can't do much about that
