And this is why I finally dumped Windows on my personal devices. My work laptop is the only machine I use that still runs Windows, and I literally never touch it at home unless I work from home (extremely rare).

I'm even raising my kids with Linux - the "family computer" (an ancient A1278 Macbook Pro from 2009) they use for homework runs Linux Mint, and does so really well.
