I never knew about Linux or Mac but when I came to university in 2007 I first got in touch with Fedora and Debian. That was such a different experience. I then started to use Ubuntu and derivatives for development and all my other things (besides Gaming) in 2010. Since 2016 I stay with Xubuntu as I love the lightweight and modularity of the xfce while at the same time get the benefits of Ubuntu's ability to integrate with so many tools and programs. At work I use Mac and it's a great experience to get into the zone but installing tools or debugging issues on OS level is sometimes hard and as not as fluent as with Ubuntu.
