      I got a Mac at work because the Linux on Mac didn’t suck as much as the Linux on windows (docker).

      My 8 years old mid range PC beats both to dust on development using the Linux on Linux, but somehow the bosses don’t value my time.

        I’m aware, though there’s some nice integration stuff that means you can run GUI applications and share the file system

        Interesting fact WSLv1 was actually not a VM and it was the NT kernel speaking POSIX

          And this is why the WSL1 filesystem was so damn slow. WSL2 uses a native ext4 filesystem (usually, you can format it to whatever)
