Yes, Linux is king. More stable, better hardware utilization. Better customizability. Linux just makes more sense.

More stable

Wellllll, I wouldn't go that far.

I just had to reboot because clicking anything in the browser randomly started sending the CPU utilisation to higher 70s, which was triggering the fans to spin at full power.

Then I ran a game on Steam and Steam said it's running, but it was nowhere to be found. Had to reboot again.

Both of these happened completely randomly after I changed nothing, just browsing the web.

More stable, haha. I was just randomly surfing around and my computer goes to sleep and can't wake up.

Also randomly, my computer won't go into sleep mode when I close my laptop. It works about 90% of the time, but that 10% is when I pull my laptop out of my laptop bag and my computer is on fire and fans full blast trying to cool itself. The OS came from IBM installed.
