The problem is it's not just video editing, like I would daily Linux if fusion 360 ran natively on Linux, if steam VR wasn't broken, if Adobe apps were made for Linux, and if the slicer I use for 3d printing wasn't such a pain to get running on nix. As things sit now I use Linux for my laptops but for my main desktop I feel pretty stuck with Windows for now, I dual boot but 90% of the time it's in windows.
Again, none of the things you listed are that commonly used. Most of the PC users don't do 3D modeling or VR.
Those are both very popular things as of the last 5 years, but basically the point is that everyone has hobbies and quite a bit are PC focused and require software that is not made for Linux and it kinda sucks that devs aren't making Linux builds of their software because it stands in the way of daily driving Linux on our main PCs
