I'm on linux because I like the open source community but most places I have worked for are on Windows.I think both are very special OS in IT field.

Fedora is the free/development version of the Red Hat workstation. :) (the support is community based)

Linux is more customisable and usually less bloated. Also windows spies on you ;)

@romangraef i am not familiar with fedora, in my Opi course we worked with Debian and CentOS/RedHat. And Debian is easier than the other Linux Distributions (Ich hätte das auch auf deutsch schreiben können, aber für die anderen bin ich bei Englisch geblieben... ;) )

Linux is the "better" OS... But harder to learn. Start with a Debian distribution (Debian or Ubuntu etc...) And with more experience, try RedHat or CentOS

Personally, I'm on linux because I like the open source community and the configurability as well as the tools; but most places I have worked for are on Windows.

@Mike R. Fedora is a Redhat distro but fairly easy to learn. or at least workstation..

nothing wrong with Debian. Currently, I'm on mint but thinking of moving to Arch with Cinnamon desktop with a login manager that would allow to login to I3 as well. I also have a live KALI USB which I'm setting up with persistence for security/penetration testing (but I wouldn't recommend as a day to day OS)
