I switched around 2 years ago after using different distros on and off for a few years on an old laptop, and I've never been happier with my computing experience.
One thing I will say is you will have to find replacements for some of your favourite applications, but I've found that pretty much every alternative has been better. And if you need suggestions just ask the community or you can DM me.
Also just pick Mint or if you really have to Ubuntu(though I would definitely pick mint) as a first distro as that will give you the best out of the box experience and a beginner friendly community( unlike Arch's which I daily drive).
Then switch if you want a different distro( and I would suggest trying it out in a VM), just don't get a distro hopping addiction😆.
I already have a Raspberry Pi and a Linux VM for development reasons, but I also need Windows for that very same reason. Sometimes Windows APIs are much better than what we have on Linux (ALSA is a janky and laggy mess), and some dev tools are nicer there too (at least with VSCode, one can have some GUI for gdb).
