Linux desktop/laptop is actually pretty usable nowadays - installing Ubuntu on a laptop is much less of an "adventure" than it used to be, with fewer incantations needed to get things working.
In fact I just installed Ubuntu on a laptop this evening, and it worked really well. (I did make sure others had met with success with this specific model of laptop before I tried it though.) Things have come a long way since "linux on the desktop" first emerged as a meme.
FWIW I've considered Linux better for my purposes since 15 or so years ago and easier than Windows since over a decade ago when I had to spend 4 hours to "configure" an OEM install.
(That included everything from I clicked the button until I had uninstalled McAfee and every other useless thing but still.)
