WSL has worked perfectly for my use case of “I need Linux to interact with the cluster I work on at school but I don’t have the time to maintain the hobbyist OS on my personal computers”
For what it’s worth, a chromebook using crouton to dualboot xfce was also good enough for what I needed, so I’m not exactly a power user

My use case isn’t too complicated, so your mileage may vary, but from my experience of using distros like Fedora (though I hesitate to recommend it due to Red Hat’s recent bullshit), it is no less usable than Windows (and it runs faster too, partly thanks to the evident lack of spyware). From what I’ve heard, games without egregious anticheat works fine under Proton as well. You could always set up a Windows VM inside Linux too (Chris Titus has some excellent guides on setting up QEMU/KVM) if you need to but I never needed to so far. Tldr, Linux is as simple or complex as you need to be.
