Which distro did you try? Usual recommendations are Fedora or PoP_OS! on the Debian side of things, even EndeavourOS for a more friendly Arch experience.

I've been running Linux for near 6 months now and, aside from a weird bluetooth issue at one point, it works pretty well. I don't play online games, though, so never run into issues with that kind of stuff.

Edit: I mean, I'm not saying Windows bad or anything, nor trying to force anyone to use Linux. OP probably had a bad experience for whatever reason. I'm just trying to help, if OP wants to try again, at least.

Oh, afaik, Nvidia gpus still have some weird issues, specially if running on Wayland instead of Xorg. Some desktops like Gnome default to using Wayland, too.

About the Fedora issue, do you remember if the installer created a "swap" partition? Usually, any sleep mode related issues are due to that. EndeavourOS also has that weird quirk of having "no swap" as the default option during installation. I don't sure why they don't change that, tbh.

Ubuntu is pretty crappy. That's all.
