Security is a complex, multi-faceted, ever chancing set of practices. All operating systems receive regular security updates. Can you point out the security issues with macOS or Windows that disqualify it for a developer workstation? > I also get company policies, I'd try to make this part of the contract I've never had anything close to that leverage during negotiations. If I had leverage like that then I'd use it on vacation or salary. Regarding maintenance, Windows and macOS both have package managers now. My dotfiles work across Linux and Windows; macOS is the odd duck. If the operating systems run the same tools then it makes the OS a means to an end instead of a religious debate. In practice, I've used all three at various jobs for my developer machine. They all have security updates and maintenance options that work fine. All can be successfully maintained, used, and developed on. > I believe that if maintenance cost is your deal-breaker you probably should reassess your choice. Your comments demonstrated that you prefer Linux strong enough to negotiate for it. I'm just a developer who enjoys solving problems and thinks the WSL is really useful.
