Hey now, as someone who works in a 100% Microsoft shop, WSL2 and the Windows Terminal are the only things keeping me sane. Please MS, keep pandering.
Absolutely love the new Terminal app - anyone having to work on windows machines knows much value it finally adds over the ancient cmd/pwshell.
This is one of the core apps I install on any windows rig now
Being very familiar with bash/zsh etc, and somewhat forced to use Windows, I've tried to learn use PowerShell. My impression is basically, what? Why would I do this? The design is intriguing but the verbosity is awful.
It is not meant just for powershell; it combines all the shells on windows plus support of fit, bash/zsh in WSL.
I use Linux daily for development and a MacBook for a laptop; having to go from extensive terminals back to shitty blue windows was painful.
The new Terminal has been the best addition MS has added to windows in a long while.
Sure, I gather that the topic is something other than regular PowerShell. This is actually the first I've heard of it. I'll check it out, thanks!
I hate the Windows environment so much. I was given the green light to switch to Linux although I have to do it myself.
I second this. WSL and windows terminal are both part of my daily toolbox and I love them both dearly.
