I made the switch earlier this year, only to get a job at an e-waste recycling company where I install Linux on laptops and desktops. Coincidentally, I also de-googled my phone at the same time (LineageOS, then GrapheneOS). The only place where I use Windows anymore is my retro desktop with Windows 98.
Same here. Made the switch decades ago (yes, plural) and I'm always amazed at how much better these distros have become.
Folks, we're now at the point where you can have the Windows experience you're used to (GUI, behavior, support for popular apps, multimedia support, etc.) but without the Microsoft creepiness of harvesting your data and/or crippling your hardware. Why /wouldn't/ you want to make the switch?
ps. That was a rhetorical question. I'm not really interested in hearing about that legacy app you still need to support. For the average home user, the time to take the plunge is right now. :-).
