There's a learning curve to it. I have yet to find anything I could do on windows that I can't do on Linux. Lots of stuff took me a while to understand, but daily driving arch for 2 years and I actually cant believe how limited windows is and how I put up with it for so long.

Only real exceptions thus far are that you can't play league of legends or fortnite. And thats because the developers have their servers set to kick any Linux users basically. Not a limitation of the operating system.
