Heh. Like I said kid, I use Linux.

Windows 10. Crew Member. English. No.

Gnu/Linux, Infrastructure engineer, mostly bash and powershell for automayyshun.

OSX and python. I like the MacBook but the android integration in windows is making me want one for the first time in a while. Windows has a lot of good professional IDE support, like JetBrains.

I want to die

Sometimes Linux (Fedora 30), sometimes Windows. We have both "cloud" SaaS and desktop app offerings, if I have to develop for desktop I use Windows 10, if I'm working cloud stuff I use Linux.

.NET dev here. I maintain some software used heavily within my company's R&D and product development cycles.

I've used windows, Linux, and OSX. Currently on win 10.

> What OS do you use at work?

> Do you think switching to another OS will make you more productive? Which one?
No, of course not. Windows is chock full of features and has tons of awesome software. Linux is a fucking joke, and nothing works on it at all. Windows isn't bloated, it's not part of your retarded botnet, and they're about to release a tiling window manager. Linux users BTFO.

The only good point is that windows has some good exclusive software,the rest is sad to read coping in an attempt to look like a flex.

Usually arch, right now windows due to windows specific project

Full stack web dev currently working in js/node, PHP, Haskell and ASP

We sell products that only work on windows so I have win10 so I can support it. It's so fucking garage, explorer locks up weekly, fucking updates auto reboot the machine whether it feels like, office apps and visual studio steal focus from everything. Apparently our stuff works in VMs now so I might switch to dual boot. Most development I do is on a Ubuntu VM in vim.
IT also wants us to use teams and our CTO wants us to move from aws to azure. How the fuck can Microsoft keep churning out such unmitigated garbage?

I use Ubuntu, dev, clojure.
most devs got macs.
IT were sneaky and didn't let new hires know they can even get a a linux machine.
I think companies issue developers with windows machines for several reasons:
incompetence / not created by people from tech field
developing for windows
IT department + security. They're easier to manage for them.

How many of you guys actually build on your local machine ? My physical machine is a windows laptop. My sources and build environment live on a Linux box in the cloud.

Ubuntu GNU/Linux. (I unplug the Windows 10 workstation and plug in my laptop.)

Switching would not make me more productive. I switched to Ubuntu for that reason.
Companies likely find it easier to procure machines with either Windows or MacOS preinstalled. Companies will change if the day of the cheap Ubuntu OEM laptop ever comes. (Most likely never in first-world countries, possible in third- and second- world developing places)

>What OS do you use at work?

>Do you think switching to another OS will make you more productive?
No. I've tried all major operating systems at length - I've used macOS more than most of you, spoiler: it sucks. Fedora has been the best overall OS for me (Arch was a close second, but I dislike how AUR requires a separate package manager).
>Also, what's the reason why some companies still issue developers with Windows machines?
They don't care. It works for them, so it should work for you, and it does, but "it works" is the smallest accomplishment an OS can have, but that's all they care about. This attitude is on its way out though.

Windows 10 but we remotely log into linux servers from our windows computers for all our software dev stuff

MacOS

Java, some TypeScript
No, if I had to switch I'd use xubuntu

It's easy to buy computers set up with windows, stuff mostly works and time is money. Also a lot of devs use c# that's easier to develop on windows.

Maybe people writing server side code will deal with other OS but for anyone writing client side they are either writing for the browser or for Windows at their place of work. Also for any large organisation it does not make sense to have to support more desktop environments, you lose scalability.

what needs to be 'scaled'?

Switching OS isn't a possibility since several day to day software packages are developed for winderps.

Some things are simpler in Linux and I used to have a dual boot setup. This isn't necessary any more with Windows subsystem Linux, which allows me to run all the things I need in bash. This set up gives me the best of both worlds IMO.

I imagine developing on anything other than Linux would be a pain.

>Also, what's the reason why some companies still issue developers with Windows machines? The programs they develop will most likely be deployed in another OS (linux, android, etc). Is it just the "mainstream familiarity" with windows (i.e. more popular)?
I don't know, from my experience developers can usually use whatever system they want.

>I imagine developing on anything other than Linux would be a pain.
Developping on an actual unix is just as good if not better thanks to some tools available on systems like AIX and other system V-based unixes. Developping on z/OS with ispf on a tso session is just way more comfortable tho.

I can’t answer this question, but some devs still request windows machines and have a hard time getting a good dev env set up.

Windows 7. Not my first choice, but it works and it was on there. All that matters is that I can use the programs I need.
I'm pretty sure switching to anything else will make me a lot less productive. At least for the first months.
Colleague, autistic as a motherfucker, has to have linux. He's made a tunnel spaghetti, using a raspberry and his phone to get his machine to work on our network. He's so fucking unproductive I have had to scold him several times, but it's still a drama.
Even when our servers, that run opensuse linux, had to be migrated I had to do all the work, even though he's supposed to be the expert.
Sorry, this is starting to get unrelated. My view of linux has dramatically changed productivity wise, but that's mostly because of its users. He's not the first. Many seem to be in it for the show. There are some that can do some very impressive shit though, but they are few.
I wish I could do that shit too, but I can't be arsed to learn it all anymore.

I use Python, Java and Powershell at work. I use C/ASM/Rust for my own projects and for special cases at work.

I wish our security team would get off my dick and audit Ubuntu LTS or CentOS for desktop use and let me install Windows 10 in a VM for Windows administration tasks.
About 60% of our deployments are Linux servers the rest is 2008/2012/2016 Server, I just feel it is easier to do my job with the setup I mentioned above.

> Do you think switching to another OS will make you more productive? Which one?
No, the software only runs on linux. The devices we run on also run linux.

> What's the reason why some companies still issue developers with Windows machine
I believe where i live, using linux on desktop at work is pretty common (more than in the US). At my old job we used to use windows and then switched to linux. When we switched to linux we were able to get better hardware since we didn't have to pay for tons of windows licenses and support. I believe the reason companies are using windows is because they order hardware in bulk and want consistency (for mail, etc) and everybody knows how to use windows but not all non-developers knows how to use linux and they are used to using proprietary windows office tools.
At my job now, even the boss uses linux. Only the designers use something else (mac os)

fixing bugs, arguing with designers mostly. also a lot of git and 6-8 hour rebases when there are bigger structural changes.

Windows 7
Backend Dev
C# mostly.
Windows 10 would make Docker easier.

Doesn't matter what our software is going to run on if Visual Studios doesn't run on Linux, now does it?

vscode runs on linux but not vs

They aren't even remotely the same thing. Bottom line is if you're using C# and not using MSVS then you're doing it wrong. You'll just be swimming up stream the whole time.

If you have a problem with that then you just gotta not use C#.

Not modular enough and you have to rely on BS hacks for everything. Would rather get a spike up my ass.
