    I would use Debian as my main OS but a few of the programs I use regularly are Windows only and work like shit under Wine. and theres no good linux alternative for them either so

    You could always try setting up VirtualBox or QEMU with a Windows install on it. But if they're games, then you might not want to bother. VirtualBox has a "seamless" mode where it hides the desktop environment of your guest OS (in this case, Windows), and instead shows the running application's window as if you were running Windows.

    I don't imagine VOCALOID would work very well in a VM

    One does not "casually" use Windows 10. You must kick and scream at its bugginess and general annoyances (or at least I do. I hate Windows 10).

    To be fair, Windows 10 has been working flawlessly for me.

    I will concede that, given a fresh format and install, 10 works alright (did so on my parents' computers), but I highly recommend NOT doing the upgrade install. It left their computers slow and incredibly buggy.

    If I still didn't game on my PC I probably would've switched to Linux a long time ago.

    I am not much of a PC gamer and all the games I play on my PC work fine on Linux...so that's pretty much why Linux is my main....and only...I haven't used Windows in 10 years..
