Good article. I think Windows became more and more bloated over time and less performant relying heavily on the power of the processor to compensate. Also, the registry still a mess and get also bloated over time. This legacy thing was good at start, but not anymore. MS have a great IDE for development, but it gets too heavy with all the frameworks and .Net things. Linux philosophy is more like “on demand” so, that keeps things lean and efficient.
Another important point, with Windows 10, 11 and soon 12, developers knows they are loosing more and more controls to MS. Yes the OS is free, but at what cost? Your privacy and ownership!
