I Used LINUX For A Year And Never Looked Back [A Rabbithole That Is Worth Falling Into]

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I'm in the same boat. It was getting to the point where my whole computer would randomly lock up whenever I tried to share my screen on Zoom or when I opened the Windows settings menu. Opening the Start menu could take a solid 30 seconds sometimes.
Then I got an OS notification that was actually an Xbox Game Pass ad and decided I had enough. I installed Linux, and after a few days of distro-hopping I settled on KDE Neon. I WFH from it every day, using Zoom for meetings and Parsec to connect to a Windows computer in the office for work. No issues, except that Proton isn't quite as performant as native Windows.
