XDG User dirs are cool, i agree. But that's not really the problem here

Well, they aren't even replying to whether the community-developed rclone backend breaks TOS, so don't expect much... but yeah, i pay for Proton and they're good for what they are.

Pretty much every distro offers an easy way to install nvidia drivers.

It's the peripherals that really need drivers. I remember having to install digimend drivers for my friend's graphics tablet for example. That said, it wasn't supported well on Windows either and performed better on my Linux setup than on Windows once I did find out about the digimend drivers.

Driver troubles for peripherals aren't uncommon in Windows either. Don't get me started on printers. Somehow, printers and scanners have always been plug and play for me on Linux, contrary to what I often hear.

No, i think he means the idea that Linux is supposed to substitute Windows 1:1

They're very reliable from my experience

Just checked, you're right about Google. Microsoft does allow you to use any app though. It's funny that the "EEE" Microsoft is less anti-user than the "Don't be evil" Google. But anyway, seeing how Google locks it down, I'm sure there must be others too. So you're right

Which services aren't supported?

It does have automatic Android cloud backups and does support local backups, which also supports backing up to Nextcloud.

Yes, we were talking about free upgrades i think
