The only few reason I know so far is software availability, like adobe software, and Microsoft suite. Is there more of major reasons that I missed?

It's not just the UI. It's the difference in fonts, it's even weird stuff like using Powershell over the Terminal, or the file system structure.

I get the same with OSX. I use a MBP, and that's also "work mode" to me. It all puts me on edge, whereas with Windows I can relax.

With that being said, I'll switch to OSX or Fedora if I'm in an interview doing code challenges, even if I'm using a browser-based code editor.
