A Senior Developer working mostly with PHP and JavaScript, with a bit of Python thrown in for good measure, all on Linux. My tooling is simple, it's GitLab and JetBrains where possible.
I think next time I'll be going for a 15.6" one. The 17" one is my main work one which is a nightmare to move around. My spare work one is a 13.3" one, and that's tiny. Not really usable day-to-day for me.
My personal one is a 14" one, which is a nice size, it's just limited in spec. I wasn't anticipating trying to do any major system development on it when I bought it, so just got it with 8GB RAM. It regularly grinds to a halt, and that's running Ubuntu. I can't blame Windows for that one.

If I had a better spec on my personal device, even at 14" I'd probably use it for work just because it looks and feels nicer (and doesn't have Windows). I prefer the 14" one to the 13.3" one, even though there's not a lot of difference in it. It just seems more usable for me.

Yup for portability it's not that great 😉 If you are on the move some even grab 13'' and then connect to the proper monitor.
