Never went with Win 11. Tried jump to Linux, played with it for a week I believe, quite recently. Tinkering aside (mostly due to learning so not so bad, last distro change I got it all up to where I wanted it within an hour after install, because I finally knew what I was doin xD) my main problem is that Linux doesn't really use my specs well.
I have an older system and on Windows, I can punch above my league with running shit like Hogwarts Legacy or Fallout 76 on my i5-4460 and GTX 750, while on Mint, CachyOS and Nobara Fallout 76 struggled hard to run fluidly, liked to flicker and freeze, and Hogwarts Legacy couldn't even get into menu. And I am not really willing to give up on these two for now.
But other than that I found that no matter the distro, shit just...works. The worst part I think was that drivers for my old GPU are shitty on linux, but if you have in hardware from the last decade, I'd say just try it. All apps and shit you need is mostly handled by package repositories (something like app stores) and if your software isn't there, check it's website, maybe they have .deb or .rpm packages which are pretty much Linux .exe files. Or a simple command to download it via terminal.
I have old Brother printer and even tho Linux community labels it papwerweight, Brother actually has full drivers for linux installed via copy-paste commands they give you on their website. With full instructions how to do it step by step. So really, if you didn't try it yet, consider.
