Oh, I'm certainly not arguing with you. I have to use Windows for work and hate it. Been daily driving Linux for years on my own PC. I should find out if I can get WSL up and running on my work machine. I've been contenting myself with git bash thus far. PowerShell is at least better than CMD, but truthfully I've never really put the effort in to learn it properly since I very rarely need to do anything complicated on the command line in Windows.

I'd definitely recommend WSL, wasn't to hard to set up on my own machine so unless you've got a locked down work machine then probably worth the effort

Funny thing just happened. Started working on a new project at work and in order to get properly set up I have to get WSL up and running. How convenient, and more than a little coincidental with the timing.
