I love working on Linux, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a Lenovo S540 (lightweight, 16gb ram,i7,ssd).

I love working on Linux, running Ubuntu 14.04 LTS on a Lenovo S540 (lightweight, 16gb ram,i7,ssd). The biggest pain point for me are mainly using tools that other parts of the business want to use like: Slack -> No Linux support, Zoom (video conferencing) -> Early beta support, 1Password -> I use last pass instead. Macs have really dominated some areas of the tech scene especially in the non engineering sections of the business, thus collaboration tools and such seem to be Mac orientated or Mac only. In every other respect I'm far more comfortable and productive on Linux.
