I agree, Windows 7 has proven to be so robust. I'm probably moving to windows 10 though, just by default, with all the security issues nowadays. I've heard they may be halting security support completely for 7 in 2020.

I think it's great to be an open source user and contributor, but knowing your priorities is most important. If you work best on windows, that's great! You can spend less time learning a new OS (which Ubuntu wasn't all that bad for me) OR you can focus on the task at hand, be it front end, back end, etc.
Once I get my career going, things may change in that department for me.
