Ah! You’re moving goalposts! The meme is about choosing an OS at boot time, not up, down, up again.
I’m in the game less than 60-seconds from that point. And that’s on an old i5-1135G7 NUC, 32GB DDR4, god knows how old the SSD is, been through 3 PCs without a Windows reinstall.
Yes, Linux almost always smokes Windows on a reboot, but it’s not that big of a deal anymore.
CAVEAT: I should note my Windows install is from an official ISO, not some manufacturer’s crapware.
I’ve noticed that my windows always takes a minute to launch when it wants to sell me on either its surveillance bullshit or force windows 11 on me. And because I don’t launch windows that often, that is basically every time. Otherwise it’s quite fast at 10-15 seconds.
Linux usually boots in around 10 seconds (including loading the DE after login), though sometimes it gets stuck for a bit after login for some reason.

You’re missing the point of the meme. It definitely is about accidentally booting Windows, rebooting and then booting Linux.
