I use macOS for Work, Linux for Personal stuff, Windows for Gaming. I still prefer Linux to anything. It's lightweight, FOSS, privacy respecting and fast. I have mint installed on my 11 yo laptop, and it still kicks like a warhorse during web development.
Steam os? Isn't it nix?
It is. The current version found on the Steam Deck is based on Arch Linux.

I bought a Steam Deck and got Win 11 up and running on an external SSD just to piss off the raven. :)
The fact is that certain things require Windows, and yeah, you might be able to jump through some hoops to get them to kinda/sorta run under Linux, but if you have a hard time with Windows, you'll never be able to do that in Linux.
