The beauty is that Linux can be as easy or complicated as you want it to be.
Fedora (GNOME/Wayland) is simple to install and use. As a long time Arch user (since 2010) I appreciate the modularity and freedom to customize exactly what I want. A few years ago I switched to Fedora on my main laptop – I learnt a lot tinkering with Arch but had to switch gears and focus on getting other stuff done.
The only caveat is that you have to be picky when choosing a laptop if you want to avoid installing propitiatory wifi-drivers or adding kernel parameters, but these days there are a decent amount of laptops that works without tinkering.
