I recommend separating professional/technical advice from ideological veering religious sentiment. Linux users need to realize that lots of the world runs on Windows and developers need to target Windows as a result. The fact that Linux isn't more accessible is a separate problem.

Actually Windows is almost obsolete these days.
Linux dominates the smartphones, servers and the supercomputers.
It's the software development model and the ideological underpinnings that made Linux technically superior, so I'd be careful not to wave them off as some religious nonsense.

It's still the majority in desktop consumer/corporate usage. I develop for all three major platforms and swap between them at home and at work; I truly serve no master here.
