Truly confused about the Notepad point... did Microsoft remove Notepad or just make it an optional feature?
Also few points for windows > linux. WSL allows for most linux-based development to work nearly seamlessly in windows without booting up a virtual machine. Almost every popular game now is multiplayer so that really does mean the majority of good games aren't linux-supported, and very subjective but IMO windows is much more graphically polished. Edit: some distros are decent but even the ones considered very good visually aren't quite as polished as windows unfortunately.
I am not sure about the notepad issue, I got backlash for saying it is gone but I don't see it. Also, points for Windows 10 < Linux. WSL and WLS2, while being useful for a few minimal use-cases for Windows-developers in need to quickly run a Linux tool or two, is far from professional capability (at least if my experience with the tools are to say anything). They are decent tools, but a dedicated Linux system is always better. With multiplayer games, it isn't an issue of native Linux support it is Anti-Cheat friendliness. There are some AC software out there that are aggressive and harmful, and they hurt the game developers as they 100% lock several gaming ecosystems. Many good online games are on Linux, but as a non-online gaming person it is not a huge deal for me. While out of the box windows is a little polished, Linux by far can beat Windows 10 in looks either with some distro defaults, or very easy modifications to the desktop environment you use on Linux. Windows 10 looks good, yes, but it is by far from unique, or the most polished for that matter.
