Linux may be the last windows update you’ll ever need, but you’ll spend day after day, hour after hour updating, patching, and reconfiguring linux itself. People want to use computers and not work on them, which is why they use Apple and Windows.

Absolute rubbish. I have used Ubuntu and Mint on multiple PCs for the last five years. I spent FAR less time administering those OS’s than I ever did with Windows. Whatever you are doing with Linux must be way off the beaten path. If all a person needs is the basics, such web browser, office suite, photo manager, then Linux fills that need with minimal fuss.
