If you’re too lazy to switch to Linux like me, Windows 10 Enterprise IoT LTSC is supported until 2032 and free to download and permanently license.

As someone who is lazy, I find running Linux to be less work than fighting with Windows.

There's no struggle free OS, every OS has operations and processes that will need more detailed investigation, and hence read as "fighting with the operating system".

No design is intuitive to everyone, all the time, and in all situations. I'm sure Linux is fine, but let's be real, you know what I mean.

I'm glad that Linux is more intuitive to you than Windows. Good job finding it, and setting it all up 👍

that's not really true there's no struggles normally with an OS like Linux Mint.

Selecting a username and password is within most peoples grasp. Click an icon on the dock and you're away

The struggle is the apps for most people, where's Chrome? (when FF is right there on the dock), where's Photoshop etc etc
