I can't tell if you folks don't realize this is true, not because Windows is bad, but because Windows + WSL is so good lol.
WSL is kind of a pain to use. I would prefer to use either native Linux or Virtualbox
This is just the second phase. Denial.
Can you tell me how? WSL1 isn't a true VM and breaks all the time on me and as far as I can tell WSL2 doesn't have any proper PCIE or USB passthrough. If I could solve those problems things would be better.
WSL is slower than a snail on a hot summer day
WSL is so garbage and an admittance from Microsoft that developers only put up with Windows due to corporate mandate. Nobody enjoys developing on Windows.
It's insane what a little bubble some of you folks live in. Someone told me the other day that storing pii on SharePoint in the EU was illegal and nobody was doing it. Plenty of developers LOVE Windows + WSL.
