Fedora Kinoite from ublue.
Windows is a pain to use. Its uncustomizable, lacks pretty much all its features after making it semi-private. Apps look horrible, theming is nonexistent for the apps I use. All the apps I use in exchange of the Windows shit are also available on Linux.
So I distrohopped, stayed with KDE all the time. Everything broke but I also didnt want "stable" outdated software, until Wayland, fractional scaling and more are fixed.
Fedora Kinoite is very up-to-date, and its OSTree model is similar to git. You have an immutable system image that you can change by layering or removing RPM software, but you should do that as little as possible.
The ublue team takes care of adding Codecs and NVIDIA drivers, so client-side layering can stay minimal. This means reproducible bugs, always. You can reset the system, you have atomic updates (either it fails or succeeds) and you can save as many versions as you want.
Updates run in the background, you get your Software through Flatpak (which is more uptodate, isolated and officially supported anyways), its pretty awesome.
