It is a kind of religious argument. Both has pros and cons. In my
experience Linux is harder to configure and sometimes to find a proper
driver for a device, but once it runs it works for years and years without
any major problems. Also as most hackers and cyber criminals are targeting
Windows machines, it makes more sense to use Linux to avoid infections.
