Linux will install faster than Windows, installing applications will be faster than Windows (because of the builtin graphical app manager, which unlike the Microsoft Store has most everything you want), and most of those burn all your time common bugs are fixed now. I have a computer running Fedora Silverblue, which I've done less than an hour of configuration with, and it's had no issues playing videogames, doing blender, web browsing, or any of the other normal things.
