We're deeply into the Apple ecosystem of iPhones, iCloud, Mac, Apple Music, so I'm not inclined to move to Windows as my main OS. But I'm perfectly happy working in 10 half the time, via Parallels.
Weird, I've been running Win 7 for several years, and have had very, very few issues that you call "freezes" in that time. I also let my PC run 24x7, and only normally reboot if I have to for some sort of upgrade.

We have been slowly moving towards the Apple ecosystem. First it was an iPad for me, then an AppleTV, then a Macbook Air for the missus, then we both got iPhones, and after getting to know her Macbook so I could show her around, I decided that my next PC will be an iMac so now I'm waiting for my HP All-in-one computer to die or become outdated, but it won't. It just keeps ticking along and doesn't show signs of slowing down which is probably good, because I plan to get one of the 5k 27" iMacs and spec it out so it lasts a long time which will be pricey.
