I'd use Linux for homelab if there was native Fusion, since I need that for school.
I am a Windows admin but two of my colleagues who are Linux admins use Linux machines that are running Ubuntu+a few internal tweaks to make it better fit us. The Linux platform is developed primarily by one of the developers at the company and some others (primarily developers) also use Linux. The vast majority of the company uses Windows.
There are also a few hundred Macs.
I have been considering getting our flavour of Linux installed on a VM or maybe even dual booting for testing.

I used a linux desktop in 1995 or so. Never since. Even when I was working with the company building unix and linux - to be clear, building and selling AT&T Unix and a Linux distro - our standard kit was windows. It was less hassle as winamp, vanDyke and Mozilla ran better as-is.
I haven't used a linux desktop in 30 years of linux. Maybe this year?
Linux
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.
