Linux will never be a player in this space despite what some of the fanatics say. They are ideologically driven instead of thinking about real users and real app workflows.
Windows/Mac = same thing really except that both systems handle color rendering a little differently. QuickTime doesn’t use the same gamma that Windows Media Player uses for example. Adobe has a LUT to fix that in Premiere but it is far from perfect.
macOS is overall preferable for ease of use. Windows has all these lovely powerful hardware options but the M1 and beyond is challenging that convention by optimizing software and hardware so that they perform a lot better than PCs with comparable carbon footprints and teraflop numbers.
