Does anybody know if when using Windows on a computer but not paying for anything windows related: is windows/ Bill Gates profiting from it? Is it worth installing linux as a protest?

Isn't Ubuntu The most used distribution? How come it isn't in your top three? Not judging, just wondering. It feels to me it's reasonably user friendly and its large user base makes it the easiest to find support online for if you're a Linux newbie.

But it is there. Both Linux Mint and Pop OS are based on Ubuntu. And these three distributions seems to be the most recommended, that I have seen. My personal issue with ubuntu itself is that it is a little bit rough around the edges and then there is this whole snap thing. But I don't want to go into that here. It was just a recommendation and yes ubuntu is fine :)
