Using Linux to develop games on UE4 is a good choice?

While I never used UE4 on Linux, I would advise against it if your game will be targeted on PC platform. In that case, vast majority of your players will likely be Windows gamers, so it just makes a lot more sense to develop, debug and playtest the game on the biggest platform it will be played on

You’re more likely to hit bugs and glitches on Linux, so I wouldn’t worry too much about that.

Of course you can’t build for Windows from Linux, so there’s no avoiding it when you need to create a Windows build. Same goes for XB1, PS4 and Switch since their tools are all Windows-only but you could (and should) have a Windows box setup as a build worker (using a CI tool like Jenkins, for example) and make scripts that fetch from your repository and build those other versions for you.
