WSL maybe? Kinda funny that a major feature is literally just the ability to use linux within windows.

Didn't they recently remove that? Or make it much harder to access?

Not sure about the future of WSL, but WSA (android) has been discontinued.

It's not really a suprise seeing as they partnered with Amazon for the app store, no side load support and as far as I know they didn't really mention it anywhere in the actuall OS, so few knew about it.

(Oh and when I tried it, getting it to work for just one app took way more effort than it should have)
