For me the biggest hurdle with Linux recently was the bad support for fractional scaling and multi-monitor setups with different scaling factors. It looks like this got better now, though on the Notebook I'm using Linux with I'm fighting a bit with the X Window System to Wayland transition. Fractional scaling is only sharp with Wayland, so I have to set some flags for applications like VSCode so that they don't render crappy.
I also had bad luck with drivers and bluetooth/audio issues the last time I tried to switch. That might have been just that particular Ubuntu release though.
I might try it sometime soon again, especially if Microsoft annoys me with Windows 11 again.
