Ask HN: Mac vs. Linux for Development?

I have been developing on Mac for the past three years. Just wondering what devs prefer in 2018? Mac or a Linux machine? The thing that i like with Mac is that there is a balance in using it for personal and work / development purpose in comparison to Linux.

But are there any specific Linux related benefits/dev hacks that a developer is missing by using a Mac? I know its personal choice but would like to hear other's perspective.

In case of an upgrade, how do you compare the new Macbooks with different keyboards/TouchBar (hearing bad things about them) vs a Linux machine?

Finally, do people use Windows for coding at Work?
