Years you say. Snark mode activated.

If you are "choosing" between operating systems, son get some rest it's past your bedtime.

If on the other hand there are 3 or more different operating systems running on your current desk, with multiple VMs, well ok lets talk.

Linux fan, great? Have you ever patched the kernel, that seems like the minimum before I can take you seriously as a voice of experience. Running other people distro scripts doesn't count but I'll accept applying a diff. Basic points if you have configured swap manually and know the lifetime of your /tmp

macOS user, awesome, do you know what a kext is. No? Oh. Never built a hackintosh? Uh, ok.

Windows, great, you know how to open a command prompt as system, right? Wait you've never heard of sysinternals huh, cool yeah.

If you're going to lecture others or roll your eyes at an OS, start from at least ankle deep levels of experience.
