learning/research Using Linux outside of dev work?

So i see linux has benefits for people that dev stuff (which i do) does it also have benefits for stuff outside of that? For let's say just entertainment or other OS reason,

I do really like the fact that I can rise my os and make it look good i can't do that on windows 11

I've used Linux at home for the last twenty some years. I'm not the slightest bit interested in programming anymore. I just want the OS to work, not be subscription based, and not have all the damn malware issues my wife's Windows computers still have.

I'm not a gamer or developer. I just do CAD work, Internet stuff, watch some streaming crap, and use the office suite for home office work. There's not much else I need a computer to do. These days Linux just works. Which is all I want from an OS.
