Honestly, anything is better than windows. Even if it is horrible, its still some competition to microsoft.

Linux has existed for 31 years.

And it hasnt been a competitor for 31 years. I am not saying its bad, I will be switching to linux, but for most it isnt viable.

If you don’t consider linux viable then why would android be for PC users?

For most it absolutely is viable.
Linux is great for the average person, great for experts.
It’s the “pro-sumer” people that struggle most often. They’re the ones who know windows pretty well, know what apps they want to install, and have became used to the quirks of windows. They struggle to adapt.
Most people use their laptops for web browsing, YouTube, Spotify, and basic document editing. They’d be fine with Linux. They just don’t use it because laptops are sold with Windows.
