Competition and choice is good, it keeps the ecosystem healthy and resilient.
No one would agree on the visual design, and most people would just want an unstyled box because it’s more efficient.
how easy is linux? i see so many memes now and i wanna switch but I'm not confident in it
You can easily try it out by booting from usb.
It's pretty easy imo if you start with a Debian distro
Start by exploring Linux Mint or ZorinOS.. Both are optimized to feel like Windows.. You can watch YouTube videos about them to understand what I mean
At the risk of analysis paralysing you.. But if you have an Nvidia video card, I would start with Pop!_OS
I recently tried pop os but gnome did not seem reasonable for me on multiple monitors.

I mean.... More computers run Linux or gun hurd than virtually any other OS at this point... Virtually every phone, virtually every smart device -- my smart light bulbs run Linux! My ptz camera ran Linux! A lot of smart televisions run Linux!
It was all fun and games until the wifi driver didn't compile...
Linux itself does nothing for desktop computing, you also need GNU and the rest of the free software suit to better the world
