I daily drive Fedora because RHEL is what my industry uses and it’s good to stay on top of the technology.

I use all three. I have Windows on one of my machines that I use occasionally for gaming. I use Macs for work since that’s what all my corporate machines comes with and I daily drive Linux and use it for all my home servers.

Another main reason why I took off my hat back then was because I was a broke college kid with garbage internet speed and my only computer was a laptop. Torrenting shows sometimes means I need to have my laptop on for days. Now I have an entire homelab setup with a dedicated VM on one of my servers for torrenting and I can afford fast internet. I was pleasantly surprised how efficiently I can torrent when I got back sailing recently.

For me it’s just more power efficient to run a VM on my TrueNAS for this purpose if I need to download very large files over night. It also speeds up file transfer / storage.
