I've used Unix since 1978 and in my career have developed on and for Windows, Unix/Linux and Mac, though Unix/Linux is what I prefer because I think it's a better environment for programming. I recently bought a mid-range laptop which came with Windows 11 and I immediately installed Linux Mint as a dual-boot. I don't usually boot into Mint as I use Windows to play Steam games and I have another laptop where I work. I _do_ run Windows in airplane mode to inhibit all the automatic install/upgrade action that, in the past, destroyed my dual-boot setup. If that ever happens I just trash Windows and install Mint as a standalone.
