Because a handful of programs and likely my job will force me to use Windows. I’m interviewing next week for a position where they’ll give me “all IT equipment”, and there were several technical questions about Windows in a prior interview, so no Linux there.
Still, whenever I can choose to do so, e.g. at home, I pick Linux.
That’s literally been the types of jobs I’ve been applying for, and they always want me to be an instant expert in their proprietary SCADA/DCS/PLC software even for “fresh graduate” positions. Not using proprietary software is tantamount to not working in manufacturing engineering.

Sounds to me like radical terrorism will help convince them to change to and port their programs to Linux

LMAO
Haha, I could see that
I would straight up refuse job if it forced me to use Windows, however I mostly do server/cloud/dev so it just makes sense.
Considering I have no income right and I’ve been rejected from ~150 jobs, I need to take what I can get.
Whaaaat? You filthy windows lover.
But seriously though, some people talk here like if folks have a choice.
Yeah as an engineer in factories I’d be shocked if someone let me use linux

Do you know how truly privileged you are to be able to consider not taking a source of income for something like that? Lol
