I can't afford a broken system anytime and that's why i can't use linux. It breaks when you least expect.

Try Silverblue or Kinoite. They're designed such that if you find an update breaks something, you can literally revert to the version before that update with a reboot. Application distribution through flatpaks offers pre-configured environments so it's not a pain to get stuff running. Toolbox lets you dick around in isolation from the system. You'd really have to go out of your way to break something. Great stuff.

I’ve been planning to switch my PCs at home to Linux as a winter project this year.

I just installed a new SSD and put Mint on the main newer machine yesterday. Nary a speed bump in the process, and it’s so nice to have the snappy desktop and update experiences I’m used to from running Linux all day at work.
