Final Cut Pro + Motion.
FCP got worse over the years so it might be time to switch to a different program, but old habits die hard.
> Other operating systems you've use
I have a Win8.1 partition for games but I think it's been over a year since I last booted it.
I've been using Linux (various normie tier distros) before I started working with video editing, also with Windows for games on dual boot. Been also using BeOS 5 as my main OS when that was still a thing, many years ago. And, of course, Amiga, even earlier.
Of all those, I remember BeOS as being the most comfy, but that's probably just nostalgia.

I tried most of the linux shit
It takes too much effort to get your shit done without any good reasong behind It.
I had old macintosh too

I stay with windows because software that I use works smoothly there with no emulators n shit
I also like to game and It is best supported on windows too

I also got my windows free and legally with my motherboard

I would consider linux only if I had business with little resources or hosted server

Windows 10
Why: Cause muh games, Adobe Software, and free upgrade

Xubuntu
Why: friendlier dev environment for hipster trash programs that i love, i like it more than Ubuntu, Kubuntu to bloaty (i hate KDE) and Lubuntu nah

Win95
Why: I have an old PC, and i hated Win 3.11

FreeDOS
Why: Cause it's so fucking memory efficient holy shit MS how did you fuck up so hard on your OS that nerds 20 years later made it fucking better than you did.

>Other OSes i used:
Win98SE->7 (including win 2k)
Arch (ARM)
Haiku (in a VM)
ReactOS(For like two days)
Ubuntu
Kubuntu (like 6.xx and never again)

Right now I run Ubuntu on my desktop and Mint on this Thinkpad. Originally I was just testing Mint (and a series of other distros), but I ended up making a setup I like here, so I might actually keep it for the time being.

I've run most buntu varieties and Manjaro. I've historically run Windows 7 & 8 and XP (also Tiny XP), but left botnet totally as 10 came out.
