Windows is definitely easier to install older programs on. Linux is getting better, especially thanks to steam/valve imo, but it's impossible to recommend Linux to just about anyone that's not in IT or interested in tech as everything seems to have a caviat or workaround you have to do to get stuff either working or just limping along. For instance..I installed endeavor on my msi gaming laptop and getting it to use my 2070 card over my Intel graphics was a nightmare for a first timer. I can't recommend it especially when I just wanna game.
