It's not Linux or Windows. For example Gaming and everyday Tasks I use Windows because Games I play run much better on Windows and I like to use it more. But for things like programming I will use Linux. I'm just beginning learning to code but I already made the painful experience of trying to get compiler, debugger etc. running on windows.

Linux and Windows are Tools. You can't use a Hammer for every Taks, sometimes you need a Screwdriver.

Some tools are easy to repair but some tools detect if replaced parts are not from the manufacturer and refuse to work, or even require a subscription. You may say you really need a "screwdriver" but that doesn't negate the criticism it requires being shoved up your fucking ass to work.

Bruh. In which Industry do you work? Don't act like using Windows/Linux is causing you physical Pain.

I believe proprietary software gives unjust power to the creators/owners over the users and that most people being taken advantage of is detrimental to a free society.
