Does it work well as a daily driver? Would you recommend it as the best choice amidst a sea of bad (Windows) options?

It would be perfectly fine as a daily - I use it for SQL Server on-prem infra that I also RDP to for SSMS 8 hours a day.

It’s clear to me it’s the best of the worst if you need to use Windows.
