HDR support didn't work when I tried it for madvr or games. Not sure if that area has changed.

Have a mouse? You need to find a driver Oh Is that a keyboard? Yeah you'll need to get a driver for that too. Oh you have a monitor now? Guess what?.. Yeah go find a driver. But wait, there's more. Oh you want to run that software? Yeah you're gonna need to search for an hour for some random file so you can run it.
Well, that was my experience about 4 years ago, no idea which distro, but I just upped, left and felt warm and cosy in my fat bloated windows π€·ββοΈ

Although I do use Linux (so should not respond here, I know), the reasons are probably similar to why Android vs iOS. They are different philosophies. No-one really is wrong, it is about personal fit.
My work uses Azure Virtual Desktop and there is no Linux client for it, only the web client which seems vastly inferior. Even running in a browser on Windows the colours are terrible.
Iβve tried and used Linux many times. Sometimes over the course of a whole year, but I always end up going back to Windows because of my games and Adobe.
It's always something that doesn't work and I can't get working. Right now (I dual boot) it's my 4G modern in my laptop that I don't seem to understand how to activate the GPS receiver in. Even if I got it to work I wouldn't know since I have no idea on how GPS is supposed to work on Ubuntu...
Screen size problems. My PC is setup as gaming/HTPC for the living room.
Constantly having to fight with it reverting from the 1080 I set, to native 4k. Pretty jarring when youβre popping out of a game and expecting a different res.
Other than that my daughter plays Minecraft with her friends and needed windows for that because Iβm not purchasing the game a third time.
The Java edition should run on Linux without requiring another license. I think you're boned if it's bedrock though.
