I made the switch to Linux (Netrunner Rolling with KDE) in the last year and have not looked back. It is definitely not for everyone as some things just have no good replacements, but it suits all my needs.

I do a ton of things in the browser, love the availability of a good Terminal at my fingertips (same as macOS), develop webapps and love the simple availability of a full local web server stack to develop on and so on. I use LibreOffice for my very few "Office" needs. I use Firefox as my primary browser (moved away from Chrome to Firefox before I made the switch to Linux). I use Visual Studio Code as my primary editor. I use Krita for my very few photo editing needs - simple stuff really like cropping or color picking. That's about it. Everything else happens in the Browser or on the command line.

As Netrunner is a derivative of Manjaro and thus Arch it's very simple to access a plethora of packages from their AUR system. It's like Brew on steroids.

Have been really happy with the switch!

Have you tried out what it looks like on Windows 10 with a high resolution display properly set to zooming like 200%? I think that Windows has made a lot of progress on this in the last few years.

You are confused. It has nothing to do with offensive. It has precisely to do with less-descriptive. Aspergers was misused by therapists for over 40 years while others in other parts of the world used it correctly. The terms I mentioned were introduced in the last 10 years to clean the mess up.

Asperger's is now called Autism Spectrum Disorder (High Functioning Autism). Please don't use the outdated term anymore. It has become mislabeled and misused over the last decades and is thus very unspecific and misleading.

I personally think being young is overrated. But that's just me. Find and do the things that make you shine. I think you might already have found it, you just need a better environment. I can't give you advice where to find it, but I can tell you that working in a startup where everyone around you is as involved as you are yourself is a great feeling. That is probably what you should be going after.
