After many years, I recently tried using Linux (Mint) on my desktop PC again. It's a complete mess. One monitor isn't detected, my Creative sound card isn't recognized, and it's impossible to fix even after searching online. HDR can't be used, my Roccat mouse can't be properly configured, and the RGB lighting in the case stays on default settings. Conclusion: For a Windows user, it's absolutely unusable. It seems like you have to consider whether everything will work with Linux before buying hardware. In the end, I created more problems for myself, which wasted endless time, just to achieve what Windows can do out of the box. And I didn't even mention all the problems here.
