Vim doesn’t care if it’s running in Linux or Windows or macOS

Windows is objectively hard to use, and makes it harder to use with every release. I wasn't saying Linux is particularly easy (though depending on the distro I'd say it's definitely easier than Windows), but more that feeling like windows is easy to use is just being used to it.

    The difference is really, I dont have to look stuff up usually to change things on windows. In linux you have to do most things with obscure shell commands and arguments that i dont know.

    How many years of Windows experience do you have?

    If you had that many years of experience on Linux then the shell commands and arguments wouldn’t be obscure.

    Now’s the best time to learn, there’s a lot of other beginners now so the Linux communities are full of people learning at the same time as you would be.
