Ya during video calls at my work it’s always the entire room waiting for the Linux users to troubleshoot their sound and video. Usually they give up and join the call from their iPhone
Windows for workstations and Linux for servers imo.
As a former helldesk minion I can assure you that linux users are not even on my radar of people that waste everyone’s time with troubleshooting simple things.
For development Unix-like OSes are far superior to Windows. Macs mostly work OOTB but are far too expensive if you need anything more than the base config. As for me, never had issues with my mic and webcam under Ubuntu and even Arch, pipewire Just Works in my experience.
I guess you only use ssh, docker or k8s? For serious software development, integration between the windows host and the Linux VM is far from seamless, or was last time I checked. Anyway, when all the software you use is unix-first, why bother jumping through hoops to make it run under an inferior OS?

I used to do desktop support and I never helped the Linux users either.
Most of them only use it because they think they are cool or something. Usually break the install every 3 days.

Linux as a workstation is trash that people only use because they think they are cool
