Linux runs circles around Windows in terms of privacy, security, control, customizaton, and DE workflows and efficiencies... so what advanced needs keep you from using it? I'm genuinely curious because Linux is far more advanced than Windows in basically every single way I can think of... I can't think of any reason I would prefer to use Windows over Linux. The only problem Linux suffers is from software support, so if you are in an industry with software that doesn't support it... well then, yeah, you have to use Windows. Or if you want to play a game with anticheat... and you are okay with installing what is essentially a rootkit on your computer, then yeah, Windows.
