Well said. I was using Unix when Linus was a baby, and welcomed Linux. But I was using Windows for my main machine, due to compatability, and because Linux was too hacky (and I used to write OS internals for a living).

Today, I am on a happy medium: Macos. It is Unix based, but has a user interface that is good for the masses. My artist/writer wife uses it, and she is utterly untechnical.

But I do use LInux - some packages, usually hacky ones (i.e. specialist stuff), only run on Linux, or only install well on it. And, I love Raspberry Pi's. But not for the desktop.

And I'm still stuck with Windows, which Apple just made harder with the M1 (there is no good Windows emulation on it). Why Windows - I don't love it, although I think it's UI is better than Apple's, unless you care more about beauty than usability. But I buy lots of gadgets - engineering tools, and hobby radidos, etc. They universally support Windows for the necessary software to program them. A few support Linux. Few supoort the Mac. Fewer still the M1-based Mac.
