The way I see it, Windows 10 is a privacy nightmare and anti virus/anti malware causes more issues than it solves in many cases. In my opinion Linux is the best form of anti virus/anti malware there is. Use Linux for everything you're likely to achieve daily on your machine, use Windows for gaming if you insist on gaming titles from the likes of EA, Blizzard, etc.
Everything is accessible from the cloud these days, there's Google's outstanding suite of office applications or MS Office available in your browser with very few limitations, if that's what you absolutely need - Otherwise Libre Office or WPS Office are outstanding alternatives these days.
People believe that MS Office is needed from a compatibility standpoint. The odd thing about that is that MS Office is using an open standard to save files, yet it's only files saved under MS Office using an open standard that show compatibility issues with any other office suite. You can swap files between Google Apps, Libre Office and WPS Office all day without issue using the same open standard, but get MS Office involved and compatibility issues seem to sneak in there...?
Personally, I swapped full time to Linux. I game under Linux via Steam or via sites such as GoG.com, I run binary Nvidia drivers which are a breeze to install using the GUI driver manager and keep updated, and I run my business under Linux using Libre Office - And I don't feel limited in the slightest.
Furthermore, I just love the look/feel of my Ubuntu MATE desktop!
Each to their own, that's just my perspective on the matter. I still have a Windows 10 machine, I just never use it!
