Replying from Ubuntu (distro of the month for me) though, so I know other. I wouldn’t say better, just different
Windows is perfectly fine for day to day use. 80% of my PC use (and probably 99% for like most people I know) is in a browser. The remaining 20% is in video games. My browser works 100% the same in Linux as it does in Windows. Video games overall are easier to use in Windows. (I use Steam (90% fine with Linux) and Gamepass, which does not play well with Linux).
But feel free to continue to complain about windows :)
Windows at this point is barely an OS anymore, it’s freemium, it exists solely to push ads and their other products. You say it yourself, most people just use the browser, but hey today windows wants you to use edge, onedrive, outlook, the office suite… and they’re taking every step to make sure you do. Their unique goal is to lock you into their ecosystem and make more money off you.

There not doing a very good job of locking people in tbh. Basically all software runs fine on windows.
Its an absolute non issue to run non MS apps on windows.
