I have pretty much used Linux exclusively since getting into software engineering. Recently, I have found myself in the game dev world and people here are convinced that Windows is amazing.
Since I have not directly compared the developer experience for each, I thought I should ask: why is Linux the standard? Does windows have any killer advantages I don’t yet know about? What is it like having a windows based development environment for large projects?
An aside: the only reason I’m using windows right now is that unity and unreal don’t work smoothly on Linux. Is that an nvidia issue or something else?
