I was on a same boat, but perhaps slightly less to the extent. But I was doing Linux primary for 10 years or so, change to Windows primary around late Windows 7, and now Windows 10/11 mostly. Some of my observations: 1) Linux is great when it is working. It handled at higher load better than Windows. Being able to choose lighter DE when working on a lesser powerful machine were great. Being able to customizing definitely make this more versatile in different environment. Windows does provide modest default -- there are things I don't like about it but at same time (personally) it doesn't bother me too much. 2) Update is more or less caused unpredictable outcome on Linux -- hibernation stops working from one version to another for instance. It actually got worse as the update cycles accumulates. On earlier version of Windows, OS rotting was a thing, but this seems to be bit more severe on desktop Linux these days. 3) International support is bit weak on Linux. (Particularly Japanese in my case.) Most I could make it work. It ranged from input method is not showing up in correct place (bit common -- annoying but easy to workaround) and more severe ones (like Chrome bug[1] -- issue that seems to exist from version 55, still open.) 4) Command line wise, PowerShell definitely made it light years improvement over "command.com" or "cmd.exe" on Windows. I actually like PowerShell that I was using PowerShell Core on Linux for later part of my "Linux era" too. Both Windows and Linux has its own strength, and weaknesses. But I don't know if I miss Linux so much as a desktop, to be honest. (and if I'm so inclined, these days I do have mean to use WSL for some edge cases where I need Linux.)
