It depends of your usage.
I don't have preferences between Windows and Linux.
I prefer use Linux for coding, compilation...
I prefer use Windows for games and other things (like Odin for Samsung Phones).

Anyway, I have a little preference for Linux because it's open source, free and debloated.

Answer 6

Since I quit windows I couldn't find any reason to go back to it.
With the upgrade to windows 10 I lost functionality of my sd card drive and I got it back working after I swirtched to Ubuntu (even though I prefere Mint that I have on another machine).
There is a learning curve with linux but it gives you the key to a world that is totally different from the one you know.

The only thing linux sux at, are games: games are developed for windows.
