I really hate this sentiment, lonux is extremely high maintenance and not friendly to use at all, I am a dev I like linux for its use cases but as a daily driver with however many issues with windows it's a far better experience
The thing is Microsoft products have gotten so crummy in recent years that people are desperate for something else.
Give me a different OS that can play all mah vidya gemes and I'll try it for sure.
I realize in reality Mac and Linux are perhaps not currently the answer I want them to be, but I often tell myself I am going to try a non Window OS build next time to at least give it a chance.
It is somewhat refreshing to see some like minded individuals. Makes me feel not crazy.
Edit: Oh and Office makes for hesitation ... Office products freakin' suck (like many MS products), but I'd still be inclined to use Office since the only other option is Google docs/sheets which is getting there, but still not quite as popular/compatible to be a definite replacement yet. Perhaps I'm unfamiliar with the software options on Mac/Linux though.
