I've been using a work laptop as my 'primary' machine for years, and it was a Mac. I was using Macs pretty much since 2005 for life and work. As more of my life moved into the browser, I was curious to try a Linux desktop again; I hadn't done so since KDE on debian in 2004. I've been on Linux Mint since the summer, and I have been really astonished at how easily everything just works. For me, it's a combination of things: 90% of what I do is in the browser; all the software development tools I use are cross-platform; and the Cinnamon desktop environment is really just good enough for anything I find myself doing. I didn't expect it to go this well, but it did.
