As a Mac and Linux guy (no more winnndddooows yay!) My Linux machine is my rock, and has been for about 10 years and 3 or 4 hardware upgrades now.
MacOS is really nice, almost as good as Linux and great for those things like photo shop files or those unfortunate days there is no choice but to use MS office.
The only thing I miss about windows since switching my second machine to MacOS is how angry windows would make me every time I tried to do something on it.

Several laptop manufacturers officially support Linux these days, even providing it ready-installed.
If the manufacturer can supply a working Linux laptop, that usually means other distros will run without difficulty on it as well.
My impression is that over the past few years Linux has gotten a bit better at just working out of the box, Mac would be good if you never upgrade the OS (but if you do upgrade, you're rolling the dice on a major disaster) and Windows is pretty much where it was (and still not a great experience for developers). Basically, the 3 platforms seem a lot closer to each other than they used to be.
