Or Mac for security and reliability and no need for such silliness as loading bloatware and viruses and needing to ask for advice on problems in the first place. No brainer that Windows IS the virus.

“No brainer that Windows IS the virus.”

Yes, it is completely out of control. So out of control the OP might have trouble finding an antivirus that will even let Win 7 support it.

I bought an iPhone a few years ago. My first Apple anything. I began as a DOS user in the 1980s.

Is it easy to move files from a Windows system to Mac? Would a Mac system recognize my emails (currently on Thunderbird) or my internet bookmarks (on Firefox)?

When I connect my iPhone to my Windows laptop, I have limited success drag & dropping files. I can move image files from the iPhone's folder to the Win laptop, but not from the laptop to the iPhone.

And I can't move any sound files I record on the iPhone, because they don't show up on Win Explorer. Only the image files I take with my iPhone camera.

Linux and Apple are no more secure than Windows, just less focus on people maliciously hacking it, and there is ample evidence of some occurring anyone. No system is immune and thinking you are because you’ve picked one of those won’t help if you click the wrong link, download the wrong file, or don’t keep up with latest updates of software and operating systems.
