Microsoft hate was something else in the '90s and 2000s. Yet people stayed with it as if they had no choice while OS/2, AmigaOS, NextStep, BeOS and all those UNIXes died.

I'm not giving up my job for an OS. for the past 15 years or so I could do everything on Mac and Linux, but that might not always be the case. I certainly wouldn't pass up a lucrative consulting position because it was windows only.
