No full time job, so as a freelancer those machines need to combine. And my work uses similar software that simply doesn't work well on Linux.

But yes, ideally I'd have two machines to separate my career from my personal life.

I'm using Debian an when working for a client that requires Windows, I'm working in a VirtualBox with Windows Server 2022 as my desktop OS. It works really well (running mainly Visual Studio) and licenses are pretty cheap. But the best part is, that there are no ads and other Windows 11 Copilot nonsense.
