Ubuntu 22.04 LTS - it works perfectly all the time now. I have no idea at this point why anyone would continue to use Windows, tbh. A couple of years ago, audio management and networking were still a little bit fiddly, but I have not typed SUDO in almost two years now. I game with Steam, and Proton works with pretty many titles, but not all; I guess I am not that heavy a gamer - having a hard time getting past Kerbal Space Program 1.0 with its endless variety of fanbase mods and CKAN for mixing and matching them.
That's pretty much how I feel about Ubuntu as well.
It's not exciting or cool but it just works without effort.
Ubuntu is pretty solid, but there are definitely still issues. Things like screen sharing on Discord etc cannot also share your sound, and it's still difficult (some cases impossible) to manage lighting and macro keys on gaming keyboards.
It's not big issues, just a series of small pains that you have to deal with repeatedly.
