if they have specialized use case such as specific game or app they might still be ok such as ditch adobe and use divinci for video editing.
some things are even better such as server and coding from what I hear.
it is a learning curve, and each instal has unique issues that come up.
it is the point it can be a daily driver.
if you go the linux route i recommend something with a kde plasma desktop environment you will feel at home if you are use to windows setup
also if you're a gamer I recommend you download Lutris, you will love it
In fact if anyone does go to linux I will even hold your hand through the entire process
