I've been forced to using a Windows machine by the company I work at after a long time of using macOS for development and general usage.
At first, I hated it and was really adamant about using Windows and was looking into ways to setup Linux on that machine or bring and connect my mac to their network.
After a while though, I've discovered WSL and then Microsoft released Windows Terminal. And my life got so much better! Having actual Linux in your shell with all the config you can dream of, while being able to get things done and have Office Suite and other Windows only software is really great.
Plus, given all recent Apple mess ups with Catalina, their insane prices for subpar hardware, I think my next personal machine will definitely be Windows based with WSL on it. And Microsoft has released some really awesome hardware recently, which is looking promising.
Props to Microsoft for looking out for devs <3
