It's anecdotal, but Linux on my ThinkPad gives:
- Rock solid stability, uptimes of months (until I reboot to upgrade the kernel). I've never had a kernel panic in over a decade of use.
- No problems with WiFi, sleep, printing or monitor hotplugging (dual wide-screen, displayport MST).
Linux is tweaked, optimised and hardened by so many people and organisations, it is seriously fast and robust. The various desktop GUIs available have also matured a lot over the last ten years.
For any developer of server-side software (which likely runs on Linux), it simply makes more sense to develop on a Linux desktop.
- nullify88 8y agoI use a X1 Carbon 2015 running Fedora 28 (Since I first installed Fedora 22) You need to give Linux distros a few months to become mature enough to run flawlessly on newer hardware. I recall having displayport issues when I installed Fedora 22. Aside from that case, I can't remember the last time I've had issues.
