I can navigate Windows well enough for my job, but I’d never choose it for personal use. I’m no Linux expert, but I haven’t yet been faced with a problem I couldn’t solve.
I think your problem is you are using a niche Arch derivative that has a small user base. You should definitely consider using more mainstream distros so you can easily find the help you need until you are comfortable and feel confident with using Linux.
Didn’t say it was hard. To be clear…by saying “well enough,” I mean that I don’t have any major problems with it…I’m just no expert. I find that there are two many pointless “utilities” that only slow the machine down. Both of my last two (brand new) computers have had both Windows and Ubuntu installed before adding anything else. There’s actually still nothing on the Windows partitions, but whenever I switch to it, it’s like switching from a car to a bicycle. It’s ridiculous how Windows can be so, so slow “right out of the box,” while Ubuntu just works.
Windows is blazingly fast on any decently spec’d machine these days. Boot times of like 5 seconds. Everything loaded up after you login basically instantly.

Maybe try endeavorOS?
😂 What exactly is hard to “navigate” about windows for personal use? (or professional use for that matter)
