Never used 'nano' until using raspberry pi's. Now I use it all the time, even on this Fedora system [just updated to v 32], for editing small config files. When first starting Linux, RedHat 5.x, I was using emacs or vi, but that seemed overkill for editing small files.
Linux is all I use here at home (the wife still uses Windows 7). Fedora Mate Compiz spin on this big box, and raspbian - now Buster - with Compiz on the raspberry pi 4's.
Not being a gamer, no reason to use Windows. Have to use Windows 10 at work, but it's nowhere nearly as user friendly for me. For instance, using Caja file browser on Linux, I can have two folders open side-by-side in a single window, simplifying copying/moving files between machines. Similar for using Konsole for terminal/command line work, with multiple tabs available. Linux works the way I think.
That's my story. Have been using Linux as my primary home system for nearly twenty years.

Try Terminator for your terminal. It's all I use now. Very powerful, and scriptable. For instance, at work, I do some admin on a couple of clusters. I have configs for terminator that will open multiple tabs, divide some tabs into multiple sections, and log into each node and put them all into a group just by clicking one icon on my desktop. That allows me to enter a command just once, and every node in the cluster will run it. I know--I could use pdsh, but this is more fun, and some nodes may fail. It allows me to watch the progress of my work easier. It's very cool.

Same here. I have a very difficult time working in Windows.

Yup. I've run every version of Fedora except for 13. I was trying an experiment to just install every other version at that time, and decided that was not worth it. I started with Fedora Core 1, and haven't looked back.
