Yep. This is one reason I've always ran linux on my dev machine anywhere that would let me - sure, there shouldn't be any difference between OSes, but otherwise it's one more place for differences between dev and prod to creep in.

Heck, in my previous $WORK, I saw differences from local (running Debian) to production running CentOS. Luckily one cluster of Jenkins build nodes were also running CentOS and those caught a subtle incompatibility between system libraries that would have blown up if we had merged and deployed to production. My local Debian testing env did not catch it.

As a Python developer, yes, there are differences - and those differences are sometimes a huge PITA.

The only reason I don't run Linux is due to other MS tech - Teams, Outlook, and primarily office products.
