The only times modern Linux is even a problem is if you have to do something really weird, support odd hardware (which sometimes it supports better than Windows), or run in to a botched kernel upgrade or similar. If you have mainstream hardware, no really oddball devices with special drivers for linux, and don’t care to try tricky stuff, Linux is a pretty solid OS these days.
Definitely easier to install and set up than Windows if you count all the account nagging Windows does. Even the distros that make you choose a lot of things during install are less naggy…
