Linux user since somewhere around 2001 - 2003 here: I use a mix of proprietary and free software at any time. I guess most Linux users are like me: using it mainly because (for me) it provides a superior experience all the way from installation, through painless maintenance, fantastic desktop usability (for me) and extremely much better performance. The last one is worth emphasizing: 1. the compiles are relevant for me are consistently around 30% faster on Linux 2. starting executables (and this includes git) is so much faster that using anything else afterwards feels just dumb.
