Just say “better.” Gnome and KDE are decidedly not perfect, but they are both quite usable even by casual windows-only non-techies.
FWIW I’ve been using Linux as my primary desktop OS for more than 20 years—it does no one any good to oversell it. Touchpad scrolling rate is still broken on Gnome/Firefox. Angels have to sing (or use xorg) to make s3 suspend work. Fedora auto-update can break if there’s “too many” packages to update. Touchpad scrolling can be misinterpreted as swipe-left or swipe-right by KDE on some hardware.
The point is, if you bang against any of these sorts of issues in Windows, you’re frequently stymied. On Linux, you can either fix it, or at least route around the damage with an alternative.
