In my experience I spend most of my time in a terminal emulator or a web browser. Windows runs Docker these days, so theoretically you could avoid toolchain annoyance. Windows also has Firefox.
Could be an option. But then I have to take care of two operating systems instead of one. Maybe WSL will be worth a shot after the next update of Windows 10. So far I did not hear too much good about it.
But, YMMV (written from a macbook)
