This is gonna be controversial, but sincere

Here are the reasons: - No proper fractional scaling support

This is especially important for laptops, but also for 1440p screens. Anyway, I tried manjaro, pop os, ubuntu, fedora and none have good support. At all. The only fractional scaling that somehow worked was offered by pop os, but it introduced a lot of screen tearing and stutters and made it impossible to use the system.

No proper gaming support.

Don't get me wrong, it is getting there (thank you valve), but it is still not there at all. While it is working properly for 60-70% of games on steam, but the problem is, you loose performance. And this is with steam, but if you wanna use anything other than steam. Well, good luck. The best you'll have is lutris, but for me it didn't work. I tried installing overwatch, which many claimed to work perfectly through lutris, but I ended up with statters (no idea how to spell it) even after leaving the game for 2 hours to compile shaders. Oh, and I didn't even mention pirate gaming. It is absent completely. So if you want to see if new ubisoft game is worth your money, good luck.

Works poorly on high refresh monitors.

I have a 144hz monitor, and most distributions work pretty poorly with it, the only thing that worked (I think) was KDE, but it was a mixed bag. On some distros it worked, on some didn't, on some it was stuttery.

Program support

Tell me whatever you want, but almost nobody will use Krita in realms of digital drawing. Nobody will use Godot in game development companies either (I know that both Unity and Unreal engine are available on Linux, but the problem is, they are proprietary, and the other is that they generally not as smooth on linux as they on windows, besides, good luck using unity on 14 inch laptop on linux. Since there is no fractional scaling support, UI will be unusable (speaking from experience). Nobody. Most programs that people use on jobs are proprietary and nobody will switch 99% of workers to a FOSS alternative (assuming there is one in the first place) for one percent of workers who would prefer to use Linux instead of Windows/Mac

Hibernation support.

The gaming issue can be fixed with double-booting windows. The problem is, if you don't have hibernation, you're gonna have to relaunch everything that you have open on your linux environment. Hibernation fixes it, but it was working extremely poorly for me. Sometimes kernel would panic, sometimes it would simply not save anything. I spent way too much time on trying to make it work. I read guides of arch wiki, watched videos, read reddit, read pop-os forums. Nothing worked. And there go 50 hours of my life.

System administration.

Do you know how much time I spent on Linux just fixing stuff that didn't work? How many times I would have to spend time fucking with my computer instead of programming? Way too many. Sometimes hour a day, sometimes 2, sometimes it worked fine. You know how much time I spend on windows? 0. Just 0. I spend my times doing whatever I need/want. And before you call me a noob, just want to clarify that I installed arch linux and used it for a month, configured i3 and rofi, nvim and all that good stuff, so I can and I did read manuals.

It made me waste time.

This one is really personal, but still it makes me mad. I wasted so much time on linux in order to get more "productive", configure i3/rofi/nvim/gnome and a lot more, wasted a LOT which I could have spent on something like drawing or making portfolio projects for my programming career. Just the amount of choice made my nerdy self go and explore everything. So if I never got into linux, I would not waste those 1000ish hours. Again, wanna clarify that this is more personal.

Very fragmented

You have snaps, flatpaks, .debs, appimages. You have gnome, kde, and others, you can use wayland or xorg. SO MUCH FRAGMENTATION. And it is the true reason why there will never be a year of linux. The choice is overwhelming and there is a lot in terms of quantity, but not in terms of quality.

No driver support for some devices.

I have a logitech mouse, but I can't use ghub, I have a rtx gpu, but I can't use geforce experience. And if you want to use something very specific like a sound card, it might not work at all, just look at Linus linux challenge videos for examples.

Now there are things, of course that I like about linux too, but honestly... they're not worth it. Why? Because most of them can be replicated with minimal effort on windows. For example, people say that package manager is something that linux has, but windows doesn't. I have to disagree. I myself use chocolatey, but there is also an official package manager, too. Linux CLI. Yes it is superior, but you've got WSL2 on windows.

Until all (or most) of issues above are fixed (expect "It made me waste time", that one is very personal), I will never use Linux outside of servers.

And hey, if linux works for you, then good for you, but for me it just doesn't
