That is interesting, I've seen colleagues go both ways - well three ways -
Web devs going from windows/mac to linux, then a couple going back to both windows and mac due to needing to use adobe products (used to dual boot and now use WSL).
Most people pick up on and appreciate the difference in speed/responsiveness and ease of doing dev (i.e it has an actual proper built in package manager that is fast, no brew crap). Whether they stay seems to be more to do with dependence - people who really like it even start to re-evaluate if they are truly dependent on software they liked, vs their new found utility.
Media seems to be a big problem, (adobe et al), but sales perhaps not, i mean office is all going cloud these days anyway.
