Yeah same. I got enough Linux for when I need it, and overall sitting on Windows is just... easier. Gaming compatibility, app compatibility, less fiddling with the system. Plus I can more readily help friends and family because my OS looks the same as what they have.
I was on Linux before, but the lack of hardware compatibility at the time (this was nearly 20 years ago) turned me off back then. I tried again on my gaming PC about 2 years ago, and quickly realized gaming on Linux is far better than it used to be. It's still pretty dire. But I kinda knew that in advance and this was more to dabble with it briefly and see how much actually works.
