The typical user used Windows since before they became scared of change, so that's what they'll stick with.

In some ways this was me, then win 11 came around and I really didn't like it, and it was pretty unstable for me, so I was stuck between two options for change, neither being what I would call "comfortable" (I had to, win 10 was blue screening literally every other day) which was when I saw the steam deck announcement, (also the LTT Linux Challenge) and I haven't given win 11 a serious try sense

I don't want to point fingers/cast shade or anything. Hell, I myself resist change where I can.

It costs incredible amounts of energy and time to change, and that change might even be counter productive to some or most of the things you do.

Gratulations on starting Linux, I hope it does everything you need it to do. Even if you should end up using it only for a short amount of time, I hope the experience enriches you.
