Windows, because of gaming, otherwise I'd use a Debian based distro or Fedora.

I use Debian on my servers.

What's holding you back with gaming on linux?

I've been there way back when windows 7 was nearing it's end of life. I'd been dual booting stock ubuntu for a while, and basically by the time proton got stable enough and win7 was officially dead, I chose to have Ubuntu be my default and keep win7 "just in case". About a year later I deleted the win7 partition because I hadn't used it and needed disk space for some bigger game :D

I think a handful of competitive online games require anti-cheat that doesn't work on Linux. Afaik CoD and Valorant don't work on Linux.
