Win10, but I swear if it asks me to try out Office 365 one more time, I am putting some Linux distro on there and not going back (except I sometimes need Windows due to work requirements).
If you need Windows for work, I'd suggest keeping that in a virtual machine. It's generally a good practice to not use personal equipment for work, but if they don't provide you any, a VM will provide better separation.
Arch & Windows 10 on my desktop, OpenSuse Tumbleweed on the laptop.
I use Debian 12 on my main pc, and on my laptop I use a OS that is based on Debian
Windows 11 unfortunately. I haven't found a suitable way to jump to Linux.
Windows 10 on my main (gaming) PC (honestly I would probably upgrade to 11 by now if I didn't need to do a BIOS update), and Ubuntu on my computer in the living room. I would try a different distro, but honestly whenever I need a guide to do something on Linux they're always written with Ubuntu and it's default commands and packages in mind so it's just easier to work with
work and gaming Windows laptop macOS
Windows 11 for main (gaming) PC.
Pop_os for work laptop.
Primary PC, runs windows 10. I have lots of various software development related programs which just works here. They don't work as well on linux.
All of my servers (Except blue iris), are running linux. Mostly ubuntu.
The other various gaming PCs around the house are running Ubuntu too. (Kubuntu to be more specific)
Kubuntu 22.04 on my laptop & Ubuntu Mate 22.04 on my desktop/server.
macOS Ventura on the Studio and the MBP work machines and Windows 11 Pro on the living room gaming tower.
Fedora kinoite/silverblue
Main PC is a gaming rig with Windows 10, side PC for work is Linux Mint with a Win10 dual boot partition just in case something fucks up in Linux, but I haven't needed it in a while. I am not upgrading to Win11 for as long as I am able.
Arch right now. Probably going to give NixOS a try in the near future though.
Windows 11 because the games I play don't support Linux.
Windows 10 but I use WSL for VS code and docker.
I love Linux, 20+ years Iβd use, but the desktop experience is inferior to Win/Mac in my opinion. I do hope that changes though.
Windows 11 for gaming, mac for work/dev stuff
Fedora on my laptop and windows 11 on my desktop gaming PC
Fedora, with proton, I waited for my steam deck, and then once I realized how good it felt, I made the jump for my main computer, I haven't looked back to Windows yet.
Windows cause I wanna play games with friends without crap going more wrong than usual
Windows 10. I primarily use it for gaming and development. I also have a Linux box for home automation with Home Assistant so I guess you could argue I use that the most passively.
Archcraftπ€πΏ
Mac OS Ventura at work. Win10 at home
macOS
Linux (Arch).
I can't stand Windows anymore. So much crap that I don't want and can't get rid of.
Windows and WSL with Ubuntu.
Kubuntu 22.04, while my home server is Debian 12.
Debian Sid XFCE.
Void Linux
