Controversial take from someone who dual boots windows and linux on my home PC and uses macs as work machines but, honestly windows is fine. IMO if you're the kind of person who cares about a good running machine you'll have configured settings and gotten rid of the bloatware and done a bunch of stuff to make windows a relatively decent experience anyway, and linux requires a similar amount of effort to get running the way you want it also, but can be a differently polished experience.
Modern OS's are much of a muchness in practice with regards to their pros and cons. Please don't downvote me to hell linux lovers, it's my honest opinion after decades of use of all three.
