There's much more to this. I have tried for well over a decade to run Linux as my daily driver on my laptop and gave up in 2018 January and just run Windows + WSL, especially since WSL2 this is quite good. There's always something that doesn't work. (And yes, if all you connect your laptop to is a normal wifi then your experience might differ. My problems were with Bluetooth, enterprise wifi and multifunctional printers.) It's entirely possible some people would prefer not running Linux because the manufacturers refuse to pay much attention to it.
I have been on Linux since 1993. Still running it on servers and router. It's still not the year of Linux on the desktop.
