Most of the developer needs a UNIX like OS for a productive workflow.

Mac works but not everyone can afford it.

If you need a text editor, terminal emulator, web browser then Linux is your best choice.

Those who work with adobe suite or play lots of AAA games then Linux is maybe not a great choice.

Free BSD is very stable and its works but lots of Apps are not available for that platform.

I am currently using KDE neon for about a year I am quite happy with it never crashed Memory uses is ~400MB and it is very customizable.
