Of course, if you are dependent on particular software suites, your mileage may vary.
However, looking from the angle of what kind of work most white collar folks do, the most specialized thing is something that even web versions of office suites like #nextcloud can do - and #linux will do just fine.
So if you need e.g. #adobe or are selling kernel-level anti-cheat games or whatever, then yes, #windows is probably the platform you will cling to until the bitter end.
