Best OS for developers

Hi there! What is the best Operating System for developers? Some people say Ubuntu (or Linux based) is more convenient for programming than Windows. Is that true? If it's true let me know what the reasons are. Thank you all.

@Andika Thank you for your answer. You mean the OS has to be chosen according to the program we develop. Am I correct? What about the cross platform softwares then? And also is that the only thing we have to consider in that case?
