Switched to Linux about 5 years ago and never looked back.

Same here, but in my case it was about 21 years ago.Since then, the only time I've used Windows has been to play games at a private club I belong to.

I use Windows, via Virtualbox, exactly 2 times a year:
1. To back up my Kindle books via Kindle For PC (except I didn't buy a single kindle ebook in 2025 so I guess not needed?)
2. To run TurboTax Small Business and TurboTax Premier. Literally no online app supports digital nomads living in 10+ countries a year and run small businesses in various countries.

Tax software is a weak spot for Linux.
I've had to use my wife's Mac for tax preparation.
Would be nice to have an option for at least on-line tax prep but my taxes are too complicated for the on-line offerings. (And, of course, Trump killed the IRS on-line tax prep system)

You must be from the US. Other countries setup their tax form submission as a web-based app that works on pretty much anything. And it'll be free to use as well.

Yes. The US had an online tax app but that was cancelled by the corrupt Republicans who were paid off by the people who make paid tax software.
