My non Linux savvy spouse is currently dual booting Linux Mint because Windows has become so frustrating to use.
Mint isn’t perfect. We’ve run into a few bugs and shortcomings. But there’s a big difference between dealing with genuine issues in an OS and using one that feels actively hostile and designed to exploit the user.
If both experiences can be frustrating, why choose the one that’s frustrating by design (unless you absolutely have to) ?
Personally I’ve used FL with Bottles on Fedora with terra-wine-staging package and everything except webviews (FL cloud which I don’t use anyway) works perfecly (and cpu usage is higher than on windows)

I’ve used Linux for a decade now and windows is so much more buggy and shortcoming. Including new bugs.
Most of my music software doesn’t function correctly on Linux :(
What software
FL studio along with a whole pile of third party VSTs, plus lots of weird audio routings and everything in 96kHz.
Bitwig is neat, but I’d have to buy like $1500 in third party VSTs to do what I do in FL.

I really wish they’d had the balls and/or the legal power to keep calling it FruityLoops.
I mean it’s massively outgrown the original looper app it used to be. It’s top tier for DAW choices now.
You should consider a VM
How much worse is the latency going to get
