I know you asked for facts, but as someone who moved from Proton I can at least explain my reasoning. I like to split my services amongst multiple vendors in general. I felt like they were pushing the suite too hard, so I used that as an opportunity to move the couple of services I had with them to different providers.

I don’t think there’s anything inherently wrong with proton, but I like being able to move to a different service without having to move the others.

This is both a pro and con vs Windows, but definitely something to be aware of. There is a ton of information/documentation available. However, because of how flexible Linux is and the sheet number of distros, you may have to sift through a ton of information to find the solution relevant to your issue. This gets easier over time as you settle on the distro(s) and features you like. Filtering out irrelevant information will almost become a sixth sense.
