Is it worth moving to windows 10 from Linux due to problems with hardware drivers?

Such a thing - I've been sitting on linux mint for a long time, everything seems to be working fine, but there are a number of problems: sensors on the motherboard are not detected (MP asus prime b250 plus); there are nuances in the work of ssd. At the same time, I have the latest version of the kernel, and I willingly add proprietary drivers if necessary. For windows drivers are ideally "licked" under iron. What do you think, is it worth enduring Windows in order for the hardware to feel great?

You need to work on the axis with which it is convenient for you, the equipment will endure everything, to cries about proprietaryism, etc. you should not pay attention at all, this is your car and it should be convenient only for you. Try it, suddenly it will be more convenient.

Do you want this ... checkers or go? Windows is not only drivers (and not always licked), but also a radically different model of attitude towards the user. In Windows, a user is a stupid, disenfranchised, worthless creature, not a subject, but an object (which is shown by the very statistics that she merges). Windows is really good for games and entertainment, when it's not a pity - well, it's stuck, well, to hell with it ...

Do you use an operating system or specific software?
If all the necessary software is under Windows - move. If not, don't move.

Are you sure that your problems on Mint are unsolvable? In addition, there are other Linux distributions where these problems may not exist. Only the name of the distribution changes, but the philosophy of Linux remains.
Windows has its own problems that you don't even think about when you're on Linux. It's also uncomfortable.

When the author writes: "I have Linux Mint, motherboard sensors do not work, should I switch to Windows because of this?" - I understand: it's worth it. Still it will be necessary not to forget to buy MsOffice, Kaspersky antivirus, you can also 1C. I'm kidding of course. What's wrong with ssd?

I have a hybrid video card, this one is great with linux. Pain and sadness, no linux comes in, it's impossible to watch videos on YouTube, there are no drivers for win7, only 10k. If I had the problems above, I would be happy.

Normally everything seems to be with venda. There is nothing to endure. The only thing that comes to mind is that it will not work copy-paste through selection and the middle mouse button.

You decide.
Although about dozens - there, too, everything is sad with drivers.
Therefore, if you move for such a reason, then by 7.8.
