For contemporary web and mobile app development: absolutely, no argument.
However, if your doing VR development, you're much better off with Windows. If you do lots of systems-level programming or ML with stuff beyond toy data sets there's a non-zero chance that you're better off with Linux.
These days, VR and ML are pushing the envelope and Apple isn't building hardware To keep up.
