You've been using the wrong browsers. I haven't owned a television since 2008 and all the TV I've watched at home since then I watched online and in a browser, usually Tor/Firefox browser, on Linux Mint.
The single biggest reason people won't try Linux is fear, and they're afraid of it because of anachronisms, misrepresentations and outright lies that told about it. I sincerely believe that if you went to a desert island where no one had ever seen a PC before and gave half the residents Windows 11 PCs and the other half PCs with Linux Mint 20.3 Cinnamon, the Linux group would become proficient sooner. People cling so desperately to Windows mostly because it's the devil they know.
And a lot of people are afraid of command line. If you're one of them, I've got news for you. It's possible to do Linux and remain utterly command line-ignorant, but you leave a lot of potential untapped that best is accessed through command line interface. Then again, if you consider yourself a sophisticated Windows user and don't do CLI, you're only kidding yourself. You're only tapping a fraction of the potential of that OS.
The Linux crowd embraces the truth that command line makes computing better. Th Windows crowd still has their heads stuck in the sand.

You are probably not up to speed on what Windows Poweshell is capable of and how it’s used. And before you claim I don’t know the Linux side, over 40 years ago I could start at a ksh prompt and start typing grep piped to awk piped to some back tick do loop .... hit the return and 9 out of 10 times have no syntax errors. :)

The single biggest reason people won’t try Linux is they are OK with the system that came with their pc.
And most people have never heard of Linux.
