Besides games that actively block linux for their anti-cheat, there aren't many games that don't work ootb on linux.
You can always check for specific games on protondb.
The very first cutscene has a worm crawling into your eye aboard a ship with brain-eating mindflayers, talk about setting the tone.

if you don't know their use case or the hardware they use
Most hardware will work ootb, most use cases is opening the browser. But i do agree a blank "use Linux" is a bit too broad. Something like "Use Mint" or "Use Fedora" is better.
What kind of knowledge do you think linux requires? Installing is like a 5 step process. Once installed any grandma can use GNOME or KDE just fine.
made by the company that has hundreds of paid employees working on it.
You'd have a point there, if the company's aim was solely to make a better product; it's been increasingly about increasing their margins at the expense of the users, advertising as much as possible and buying out the competition.
Typically prices go down, not up. This is already the cheaper version.
Chromebooks are a privacy nightmare and have shitty lifespans though. It's a poor comparison too because at this point you're buying new hardware instead of installing different software.
Modern distros are very resilient as long as you stick to the big ones, maybe even more than windows. There's plenty of benefits for regular people too. A few off the top of my mind, the OS doesn't have ads, no privacy minefield, less malware. Gotta keep in mind that at the end of the day, most people only use their pc to open the browser.
