Any Linux distro I've ever used hasn't even been in the same ballpark in this respect.
Google might beg to differ. It runs largely on Linux, running a combination of Python, Java, and Go on top.
Of course, you may have your preferences. I know that I certainly do. But you cannot honestly disparage something which has single-handedly resulted in the internet as we know it. It may not be your thing, but godammit lots of people have figured out how to make lots of cool stuff happen that didn't exist before them.
I got into this business because it was always doing new cool things, and each thing it was able to do was more impactful than the previous. I can tell you that IBM is doing some incredible things with Linux on their System Z mainframes that would simply not be possible on Windows.
