Removing Windows and using Ubuntu on my personal device helped me to support the other Senior developers in my new company in few simple, notable, appreciated issues. And I can't deny that I regret the years I spent using Windows like any end user.

    As with all these things every tool has its place, good luck with Linux I'm sure you'll enjoy it, don't forget though windows got you started even though it doesn't suit your needs right now.

    @philcr the fact that windows slowed down the rate of progress for the developer, it is for users who are not enrolled in the programing and development. Windows is a great environment for normal users who want to "easily" run other applications, but ofcourse it is not the suitable place for a developers.

    @soliman however if you have to write a Universal Windows Application for example it is easier to code and debug within a windows environment. When Linux integration to debugging for Microsoft platforms includes support for remote debugging then I'd happily move.

    @soliman I use the JetBrains suite of IDE's. It really doesn't matter what it runs on. I don't personally like the floaty windows of osx, so Windows and Linux are both fine for me.

    I have never had any issue programming anything on Windows, and many will feel the same. Just because you don't like something doesn't mean you should make a definitive statement about a whole OS.

    @MaccaMc Really it is not about what I like or not, please don't try to make it like emotions is the reason ;-)
    It is not about developing applications, you can do that on your smart phone using your text editor :-)
    It is about the knowledge and experience that is make the difference between who know how to use, and who know what the whole story is about!
