Please try linux mint, it truly is an exellent and nearly bullet proof OS. Pretty much the most popular distro so theres a good chance if you ever do run into an issue or want to know something its not hard to find the info you need with a simple query. No driver jankiness or hardware support issues ive ever experienced either.

Mints cinnamon desktop environment is very different to Plasma KDE. You may find it more pleasant to use. What are you unhappy about with your current distro and what makes you want to move back to windows

Maybe I’m an old dog now, but the new GNOME and KDE desktops kind of grate on me just like the new Win10 does

No need to fully distrohop, just install Cinnamon

Seconding Linux Mint for transitioning Windows users, especially with the Cinnamon DE. They’ll wonder why they ever hesitated.
