Maybe for the positions you may have been in; had I used Linux at any of those other jobs there would constantly be document compatibility issues between LibreOffice and Word, and in an IT position I wouldn't be able to replicate issues a user is facing, unable to read Windows memory dumps or event logs on my own machine, the RMM doesn't have a client for a tech to use on Linux, and that's just scratching the surface.

The benefits of Linux for me (no ads, no telemetry, familiarity of the terminal and config files, open source, privacy, sticking it to big tech, etc.) just don't translate into things that would make me more productive at work.
