Idk man, I use all three major operating systems where they are appropriate (I like my MacBooks for dev, I know apple sucks now and all but I still prefer them).
I’m way way past my zealot days of trying to get people to convert to Linux, and windows isn’t really as dogsjit was it was in the early 00s… not to say it’s perfect, but it plays my games great.
Home lab and work infrastructure? All Linux, in various flavors.
You should try playing games on Linux with proton. It’s gotten so good in the past 3 years that I have not wanted to play games on Windows since COVID.
I have only seen games not work on Linux when it required a rootkit and I don’t care to have that installed outside of a sandbox anyway.
If there is still a place for windows, it’s for games that require root kits and for the handful of specialized software that won’t run on Linux.
Even when a company forces me to use a windows laptop, I just install arch in wsl2 and do all my work there.

I guess I have my steam deck, that kinda counts!
I need it for my engineering apps unfortunately… but even then, I run windows in kvm lol
