I don't understand why people are moving Linux --> Windows. At the company I work for everything is native to Linux--I am floored by the number of interns we get who are using Windows (it's all of them). We have an intake script for getting them up on WSL2 with our stack on top but man these graduates are CompSci people and they did 4 plus years of CompSci using Windows? I can only imagine the pain. Or rather, I know the pain since I have occasionally dipped my toes back into that world of hurt.
A non-WSL2 Windows person doesn't get the benefits of Nix, usually doesn't live life on the shell (since every Windows program is gui first), doesn't do dotfiles management (you can but paths for the git Atlassian method are non-obvious), ssh password protected keys are a PITA...good God I could go on ad nauseum.
I work in this industry because I love computing. But these Windows jockeys I dunno I get the feeling they don't necessarily love computing? Or in the way that it's this mundane tool for the production of money-points that they can then exchange for money. I also am receiving the money-points and it is good. But lemme crack open your head and pour in the magic y'know?
