Of course it's not as good as MacOS + Apple headphones but I think more recent Linux distros that use PipeWire as the audio backend are ahead of Windows. On Windows, A2DP support is so limited that headsets like the Sony XM4s suffer from worse latency and sound quality, particularly terrible mic quality, while on Kubuntu everything works out of the box with the same quality you get when paired with a phone. There's still the issue of unstable drivers that break out of nowhere and require rebooting for Bluetooth to work again, but Windows has the same problem on my laptop.
