Nah, I've been using Linux since '98 when I tried out Mandrake. (Which became Mandriva, which is now Mageia...) Drivers suck on Linux, they have always sucked on Linux, and it's the big thing that is keeping the OS from becoming more mainstream.
When you say drivers just outright say it: graphics drivers. Used to be worse with WiFi cards, printers etc but the only one that is a sore thumb sticking out is nvidia still. I even have game controllers that just work by plugging them in. Driver support outside of nvidia is great in my book unless it's some specialised hardware, even my drawing tablet works great.
Oh boy. The linux fanboys will be along shortly to sperg out now that you fired off that signal flare.

Printers for networks or MFPs on networks are still a bit wonky.
TBF: those are also pretty wonky on Windows, I hate printers in general.
