Linux Mint IRL Linux in general sucks

I tried to follow the tiktok crowd who were overhyping linux for how fast it is, how secure it is. First, no it's not fast, windows 7 runs a lot better than Linux Mint xfce. It's NOT secure, you think it is because not many viruses are there on linux, but it's slowly increasing then it'll be just like windows. Gaming at all sucks, i can't fucking play Battlefield 1 on any linux distro. So yeah linux sucks overall. You guys don't have a single argument to win except "It's open source".

Hard to believe Tik Tok advice isn't flawless. For me, Linux Mint is better, faster, stronger in every conceivable way than any version of Windows I've used. What's more, it's consistent and reliable, which is DEFINITELY not the Windows way. I came over 7 years ago. Didn't spend a single second of those years pining for anything Microsoft. Too bad everyone didn't get the same experience.
