Late reply, sorry just going though my messages here. But I get all the Linux love, however I assume you're a developer or a writer. Linux is incredibly niche and basically a non option for a vast load of industries.
Im a professional video editor and animator. Adobe is my bread and butter. I can't use another option realistically either as it mostly doesn't exist or I have to send out my projects to other creators and need to be able to talk to other PCs.
Linux doesn't support Adobe, it doesn't support about 80% of my other creative softwares, it won't play nice. Windows, for my use case runs like a dream.
Until Linux gets broader adoption of actual pro level applications for the film industry (and many others), it will always be a niche OS for coders and web devs sadly. I'd sooner roll back to windows XP than use Linux.
