Linux Workstations
Depends a lot on the linux distro. A lot of them are much worse than Windows
or OSX in that regard. Even Red Hat has gone to systemd and the new gnome
bloatware. Linux gets a whole lot of change-for-change's-sake these days
which is very disturbing.

I did try Ubuntu Studio using KDE a while ago, and while it was not a
bad way to work, it didn't mesh well with the rest of my systems, so it
got deleted.

The core operating system is stable, and updates to it don't affect
programs, while you can opt to only take security updates or the whole
bleeding edge, nightly updated experience for the programs. It will tell
you at boot that "100 updates are available", all of which you can
probably safely ignore if you don't collaborate over the net or don't
run a firewall.
