Both, it's both, and they're meeting in the middle. Windows has taken a nosedive with 11, while I can say at least for KDE that it has been improving massively in stability over the past few years, and Proton has made gaming on Linux possible. Adobe being Windows-only is still a big hold for lots of people, but unlike decades ago, today lots of top software like Davinci Resolve is now nativelly compatible. Pinta is no Paint.NET and Okular can't match Adobe Reader, but eventually they just might be good enough.

One day we'll look back at the legacy pile of self contradicting nonsense that Windows is and wonder how we ever used it productively.
