I think the problem here is that a majority of the power to change lies in Microsoft's hands. It's their OS, and there's not a whole ton we can do to halt their constant, greedy arrogance.
So, switching to Linux isn't the easiest "solve all your problems" solution, but in the long run it simply removes a lot of stress of constantly wondering what stupidity Microsoft is going to force on you next because they "know better" and figuring out how to counter it with some hacky fix. (But also knowing no matter how hard you try, the thing is built to profit off of you.)
If somehow we could make Windows feel like it was OURS instead of THEIRS again, I'm sure people would be all for it.
