I went to CachyOS recently. It isn't my first swap, having tried Manjaro previously, but circumstances kept me from staying before. This time, I'm doing most of what I need in Linux and only swapping to a Windows dual boot for a few odd things, like Adobe for e-sign for work (they only accept that).
I think the only other frustration is work admins don't let me use non-outlook for email or an alternative to one drive, but for personal use I see no reason to use Windows.
Also, and the strangest thing, the MMO I play with friends runs differently on Linux. It's hard to explain, but the game has fairly bad net code that's somehow resolved with Wine. So, what used to be a half second to a full second delay on things like attacks going off, it's instant now. For better or worse, given it leaves less room for error, lol.
Oh also I'm enamored of KDE Plasma. So pretty and smooth, with themes I actually like. It's much better than Windows UI by every metric I can think of.
