Anons, OP is right. Windows was great, but now bad things are happening. It's time escape before it's too late.
> I want to play games
You can play most games with Steam or by installing it via a Wine wrapper.
> I need to write Word documents
Libre Office does that.
> But I have some specialized software that only works on Windows and doesn't work on Wine and I can't use alternatives for work reasons
In this case, do the following:
> buy a second cheap computer and run Linux on that
> run your life securely on the Linux computer: all browsing, email, porn, youtube
> do minimal professional stuff on the Windows computer
> preferably unplug the Windows computer from the Internet so Microsoft doesn't get your telemetry
