The only bad thing about switching to Linux is that you can only do it once.
(Ok, sure you could switch back to Windows and then back to Linux again but nobody does that...)

Is Microsoft worse than Google?

Sweet. I've been boycotting micro$quash for a couple of decades now.

I feel like there's a joke in here about Linux users propensity to distrohop being like a ritual reenactment of switching to Linux for the first time (without having to defile one's computer with Windows again)

I'm kind of done with my boycott era

I switched back to Windows, because Mandrake was frustrating, but Ubuntu got me back a few years later. It helped that I was into Richard Stallman and the philosophy of free software. There were a few Linux supporters in the local punk scene, too.

Keep Windows in a virtual machine where it can't cause any trouble.

Oh, so you were only doing it to be trendy? Weak.

Same! Crazy to think that it's been that long. My first real Linux OS was Kubuntu Dapper Drake.

Have some empathy, boycotting might inconvenience him.

Call it caring fatigue. There are causes that I care about and that I spend my time and energy on. But over the course of 2020-2025, every little thing-of-the-week issue that popped up demanded that I stop buying socks at target, or burritos at chipotle, canned beans or pens or video games or cloud services or t-shirts or shoes or plastic cups or what have you. I just don't have it in me to pretend to care about everything that everybody else cares about all the time. I'm picking my 2-3 things and sticking with them
