Thanks to all those who explained why they prefer Claymore/Windows over silentarmy/Linux.
To rednoW who said "And Claymore is faster, especially on Tahiti" -> this is not true, silentarmy matches or surpasses Claymore even on Tahiti (especially when taking into account its 2.5% dev fee).
Anyway it is apparent to me that many features (temp/fan monitoring, pool failover, Windows support, etc) are what you guys want in a miner. So I will take this into consideration to prioritize my future developments. But on the other I agree with the 80/20 rule: like Bitcoin in its early GPU mining days, it seems 80% of the hashrate comes from 20% of people who operate large Linux mining farms, while 20% of the hashrate is from 80% of people who operate smaller hobbyist Windows mining farms.

So if i get you right, you'd rather be pragmatic and benevolent to the 80% of miners who run 20% of the hashrate, instead of just feeding the 20% who already own 80% of the hash rate?
