Many people say that on Linux it is better to program, why so?

Почему все говорят что Линукс в этом плане топ?🤔 Мне просто интересно

For C and C++ programmers, yes. I will not say better, but I find it easy than Windows. C compiler in Linux comes pre-installed, and for 3rd party library only in very rare occasions you have to compile from source. Most of the time you will find what you are searching for in the repository. For eg Irrlicht game engine comes as a header file for C++, you can install it with package manager and use it like any C++ standard library in your program without manually setting up linker or header path, it does automatically for you. Second Win API is crap for me, that's the main reason. Linux system calls looks neat like normal function call, whereas Windows system call has tons of parameters that confuse programmers, for ex fork() in linux creates new process the same equivalent function in Windows looks similar to this createProcess(HINSTANCE...and 9 more parameters that looks very cryptic);
