- TekMol 9y agoWhat can one do with that "subsystem"? I want to use all the software that is in the Debian repos. I don't want Microsoft to spy on me. And I don't want to be exposed to their security issues.

You get real apt-get and you can install things, most of them work. > I don't want Microsoft to spy on me. No luck there, though it seems like everyone short of the BSDs is doing that these days :(. > And I don't want to be exposed to their security issues. You still are, though again I don't think their security position is worse than anyone else (again, short of the BSDs) these days.
