My wife sees me using Linux all the time and wants me to install it on her 2017 MBP (the infamous A1706). I can't get over the amount of freedom I have over it, even after growing up with SuSE (under Novell's ownership, my dad's employer at the time), Debian, Slackware, DOS, Windows 95/98/2000/XP, Apple System 7-8/Mac OS 9/OSX, and an open-minded, techy dad who never pledged any allegiance to any particular OS ecosystem.
My point: Not even my dad wants to use Windows anymore. That said so much about it to me when he switched.
My wife is the tech professional and she's wary because she doesn't want to do her job at home lol
