Modern Linux is bad, nothing works completely, and on top of that, fragmentation between X and Wayland makes it worse. I just want to use my favorite software on a convenient operating system that doesn't eat up a lot of resources. And yes, that’s Windows 7. Just give me back the ability to use Steam or SourceTree and stop forcing bloatware like Windows 10 or Windows 11 on me.

Such as? Everything has been working for me the past >20 years.

As for X vs. Wayland: you do not have to care about it. Just install a distro with X.

Steam works on Linux, and lots of games run under Linux now thanks to Proton.

I have 8Gb RAM and HDD. Windows 7 works perfectly, windows 10 work acceptable. Linux bad work: horrible performance browser and IDE especially on distr with snap (browser performance near zero). On linux desktop huge problem with shortcuts. I don't know what the DE developers are doing, but I've never been able to get the key combinations I need and find convenient to work without conflicts with the system ones. Or it's just impossible to set them.
