Arch Linux is not exactly ideal for security and it requires too much technical knowledge to offer privacy for the masses.
The unfortunate reality is that non technical uses will never achieve the same level of privacy and security as technical ones.
I personally feel like I have no choice Windows is collecting way too much data for me to be conformable using and Apple is just a benevolent dictator for now it can change its mind at any point and you wouldn't be able to do anything about it so I see Linux as the only choice.
Not to mention that most development tools i use these days are way easier to use on Linux then on Windows.
If I need Photoshop or some software that only runs in Windows I can always run them in a VM.
