Like Linux doesn't have its annoying quirks that linux users will endure ...

Just installing an audio device or Nvidio GPU is a pain. You guys are reinstalling your OS every couple of days because yet something else broke and you don't know how to fix it. Repositories needing repositories needing repositories for things to work.

Not to mention the limited amount of programs that are compatible compared to Windows.

Speak for yourself. I’ve lost count of how often I reinstalled Linux.

We are well beyond the point of a majority of common hardware having built-in kernel drivers and userland software for extra stuff like RGB control that the best advice is rather avoiding Linux, to instead avoid the trash hardware (NVidia for the time being, GoXLR, Broadcom, etc.). My GPU, audio hardware, network interfaces are both popular products and have worked out of the box for years now.
