Meanwhile, Windows has become drastically better for development over the past few years. There are still some drawbacks, but a ton of the anti windows circlejerking in tech spaces is caused by people who haven’t touched windows as a dev environment in 10+ years.
And the full version of windows. Honestly I love Linux with Wine for the same reason. I just encounter more hiccups that way rather than the WSL route. It’s just more complicated to emulate GUIs.

Seconding WSL, but that kinda proves the point. The solution to making Windows dev better was to add Linux.
Not OP, But WSL and its recent improvements come to mind. If you’re deploying on a Linux box it makes it pretty seamless to develop.

So Windows is better than Linux because it allows you to use a restricted version of Linux?
