Tbh I don't think Linux users should recommend Linux to Windows users. Linux fundamentally cannot replace Windows, it will never fully replicate its software support or quality. If someone tells me that they need Adobe products or other professional photo/video editors I would genuinely tell them to reinstall Windows.

Who are we supposed to recommend it to then?

I don't think it should be recommended tbh, at least not as a replacement to another operating system. Many individuals within the Linux community overstate its benefits while downplaying the downsides causing people to have incorrect expectations of Linux.
