Had a similar experience in around ~2017 and switched over to Linux. At the time I didn't have the time to build my own and bought a mid-range System76 laptop.

Best computer decision I've ever made. I'm not a heavy gamer so the machine is still running fine. I've only had one time in the last 9 years where I had to drop everything and fix my computer vs Windows where it felt like once a year

Honestly that's what it feels like when something breaks. Linux - you see what's wrong, you fix it, it's done

Windows - you pull your hair out trying to figure out what caused the issue, you fix it, it's back with the next update
