Different computers. My work provide me a dedicated work computer. My work doesn’t really care which OS I’m using on their computer. Only that I’m doing the job, and I’m most productive on Linux.
But if I for some reason had only one computer I would probably dual boot to keep my work and personal life separate.
If the choice was between Mac vs Windows I would probably go with Mac, as it’s Unix based.
In a previous job I had to use Windows. I think it’s tolerable at best. Thankfully WSL along with the new Windows terminal is pretty good these days. I don’t miss the days when MSYS was the only Linux-like option for windows.
Used to be stuck on Windows, before WSL made it in most corporate deployments. The only way I kept some level of sanity was by totally foregoing working on Windows itself, and I just worked off a VM.

Lucky duck. My work got me a Macbook even though I requested a cheaper Linux dev machine.

Holy shit. When was WSL released?
