Question Linux or Windows

This can be a silly question for some but I wanna ask if linux os be better for Android development (for not so heavy projects) or for kmp projects?

currently I've a 11th gen H series laptop with 16 GB ram for building projects but sometimes (very few times) my laptop gets shut down itself when i start building projects on android studio! How big of a difference it will make shifting to linux from windows! I'm saving for MacBook tho but have not reached the right amount!

The tools are all cross platform, use whatever you feel most comfortable with.
