Yeap. I’m a sysadmin, I work in a linux shop, we provide a linux desktop to our users.

And I use windows both at home and on my work machine, for sheer quality of life. I don’t have the time or energy to deal with the mediocre UX and gotchas of the linux desktop.

For actual computing tasks, I ssh into a linux box, from my nice comfy just-works windows environment. Between Windows Terminal, VcXsrv and SSHFS, I have all the integration I need for a seamless experience.

Use individual tools for what they’re best at, and play to their strengths.
