Thank you very much Thomas, a lot of very detailed information!
Another factor in the choice, that I didn't really think about yet, is how much adjustments I'd have to make both in development and in normal "desktop-y" usage.
Lots to think about, as usual the perfect system doesn't exist (well, it's macOS with less stupid hardware choices, at least for me :D)
Yes, I gave it a good proper thought ahead of time and went on a hunt mainly in hopes of finding 1:1 replacements. It's impossible :-/ I had to adjust and do things in a different way. The only things I work with which are available with the same feature set for Windows are:
Quiver - I had to switch all my stuff to individual markdown files. But that's not really a bad thing
iA Writer - they have a Windows 10 version but it's very bare bones early stages and I doubt it will ever reach the quality and feature set of the Mac OS X version.
iTerm2 - I couldn't find a good terminal emulator. Cmdr is probably the way to go though.
Pastebot - I replaced it with Clipboard Fusion - It's not as good in terms of running (custom) filters though, or I couldn't figure it out yet
Alfred - I found Ueli but it had two problems: 1. it was slow to start and not really responsive. 2. It started giving crash messages on startup.
At least there is Chocolatey as a suitable Windows replacement for Homebrew
I do not like Windows built-in mail and calendar clients. The calendar for example doesn't allow you to change the target calendar / target account of an existing event. Something that can be done with ease using Fantastical. I'm using em Client instead and I have to say I'm quite happy with it. It's quite customizable and does everything I need to do.
