In my experience Linux tends to behave a bit more deterministic then Windows. I also love the control I have over all installed development kits, runtimes and versions. Last time I used Windows 5? years ago, it constantly messed up my build pipelines by randomly choosing the wrong programming language versions or runtimes.

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word “Linux” in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
