The entire IT ecosystem is built around Linux, because it’s so prevalent in servers, containers, budget hardware and the open-source community.
Yes, many companies don’t understand that and expect their devs to be productive on Windows. But in my experience, that’s an uphill battle.
In my company, we get very little IT support, if we decide to order a Linux laptop and we still have significantly less trouble with getting things set up to start coding.
Not to mention the productivity boost from having all the relevant technologies natively available + being able to script whatever you want.
