PewDiePie made a video on why he installed Linux and explained why everyone should do it too. Due to his number of followers, this might be the year of the Linux Desktop? Hooray?

Windows for interoperability.

Try job hunting without a Windows machine. Good luck!

(My wife hates it when she hits websites that don't work properly and starts swearing, then I ask "Are you using a real browser or just Safari?" - "FUCK YOU!" Somehow we're still married. 😀)

I don't have any problem job hunting on a Linux box. Why would that matter?

Quite a lot of job portals are not only Windows dependent, they can even be I.E./Edge dependent.

Requires Windows to apply? Easily in the “nope” pile. Which is a privilege, I realize.

Yup. If you're on unemployment and have to hit an application quota, you can't afford to be picky. :)

Firefox with user agent switcher extension. Problem solved.

Are you using a real browser or just Safari?

I used to do web development, Safari is honestly worse then IE6

It's godawful, so many things don't work in Safari and it's because Apple can't stand other people coming up with "standards". :)
