I think you never tried Fedora... the most polished linux version I ever experienced. Better in my opinion than Ubuntu.

Step 0: Start migrating while on Windows by replacing your apps with ones that also run on Linux

Curious to see what they implement to replace the m365 suite, libreoffice on the endpoint is cool. What of Sharepoint online, exchange online etc

It's not that they don't want to rely on Microsoft, it's because they don't want to rely on software that is beholden to a foreign country. "The minister also added that this initiative isn’t solely about Microsoft. Instead, it’s a step toward reducing an over-reliance on just a handful of providers." There should be better competition among OSes, we've seen what improvements can come along when something like Steam Deck is on the market. It would be better for everyone.

Trust me linuxbros, this year for sure.
