I used to learn programming in Windows but then I started The Odin Project and they recommend to use Ubuntu so I installed it in an old laptop and now I learn JavaScript in this machine :), I really like the experience
I've been a happy Linux (Pop!_OS) user for almost two years and it's my primary OS now. Before that, I mostly used a Mac. I dual-boot into Windows sometimes for gaming.
The first OS I remember using was CP/M+; after a few years, I switched to different versions of DOS. I tried Windows 1.0 for a week and dismissed it. Windows 3.0 was the first version I kept longer than a week and Windows 3.11 for Workgroups replaced DOS for me entirely - but not for too long: a friend have me a CD with a new OS called Linux, or more precise DLD 1.0, the first German distribution. After working out a few issues with my hardware, this soon became my daily driver, later to be replaced by a newer German distribution called SuSe. Then I went to university and tried Debian, Linux from scratch and Gentoo.
A later employment meant I had to use Windows 7 at work. Since I had less time, I moved to Ubuntu on my personal box. My employer switched to Windows 10, but soon after, I switched my job and the new one allowed me to run Linux on my work laptop.
After some nagging issues with systemd in Ubuntu, I looked for a distro without it; arch linux or void linux were on my list to be tested. I first tested the latter and was positively surprised. So that's what I use right now.

Specially, the flexibility and smoothness is too good!

Yes brother, Ubuntu is really a great operating system!

Yeah, Linux lacks gaming resources, softwares, games stores.

I use all 3:
I mostly use arch for the actually hard work , except on my pi
I use a mac for research
for the quick and dirty stuff , like a trivial patch to a project, I use windows , mainly since its waiting on my laptop.

Btw, I use Ubuntu!
That's great!
Windows for work and Linux for home.
I am an all platform user.
Linux - Docker, Cloud Compute machine
MacOS: Coding, working
Windows: Game, entertainment
Wow, that's cool. But I need to work harder to be like you.
It is different in our company, but the division is rather equal.
I use windows but I love linux
lol I was coming in to give the same answer. Windows at my day job and both Mac and Linux on my personal devices.
