Windows 10 is definitely amazing, I do notice a substantial increase of performance.

Comparing Windows 10 boot times to that of Windows 8/8.1 on the same hardware, the former Is certainly quicker.
Of course, an SSD boot drive Is the way to go.

Been using windows my whole life to keep it 100. I liked Linux when I was a young lad getting his computer gills wet but haven't really tried it in recent times. The few times I've watched and used OSX it seemed really straight foreward and streamlined + aeasthetics on god like levels but stll haven't owned a mac yet.
My vote goes to Win10
Runner up: Win7 for simplicity

I'm currently using windows for everything but I'm definitely going to use MacOS for school and sooner or later for work.

Here's a few stats on the operating systems used: https://netmarketshare.com/operating-system-market-share.aspx?options=%7B%22filter%22%3A%7B%22%24and%22%3A%5B%7B%22deviceType%22%3A%7B%22%24in%22%3A%5B%22Desktop%2Flaptop%22%5D%7D%7D%5D%7D%2C%22dateLabel%22%3A%22Trend%22%2C%22attributes%22%3A%22share%22%2C%22group%22%3A%22platform%22%2C%22sort%22%3A%7B%22share%22%3A-1%7D%2C%22id%22%3A%22platformsDesktop%22%2C%22dateInterval%22%3A%22Monthly%22%2C%22dateStart%22%3A%222017-04%22%2C%22dateEnd%22%3A%222018-03%22%2C%22segments%22%3A%22-1000%22%7D
And a list of Windows versions: http://gs.statcounter.com/os-version-market-share/windows/desktop/worldwide
Notice Windows XP Is ahead of Windows 8. As to It's accuracy, It remains to be seen.

I use Arch i3 due to the customisable functionality it can do which is why I love it. I would recommend trying it and giving it a go.

I would go with windows 10 but some essential os wouldn't hurt either

LInux for sure has many great OS, Windows kind of builds and "improves" every time, so far windows 10 has run well. Apple is gorgeous and reliable as well. It falls down to personal preference and mine changes depending on what I'm working on.

I've always stated that It comes down to one's overall usability.
You're the only user (as far as I can recall), who's ultimately answered a question of this nature perfectly.

Depends. I use windows for coding all day. Just all around general work. Mac is more fornphotoshop and stuff.
