I really enjoy WSL 2. I mostly use it on my ThinkPad; my workplace is mostly .NET + Angular, so I kind of need Windows as my primary OS, but I'm personally more used to dev work via Linux. (There are coworkers who get away with using Macbooks but some of the tooling we use is difficult for them to run.) I dual boot at home, but for work dual book isn't really the tool I need. What I want is to be able to use bash and the *nix tools I know best as an interface to the Windows-based projects I work on. I'm much faster navigating the FS, even the Windows FS, using bash commands than the nightmare that is cmd, and Powershell just feels like too much -- like Java in the shell. So WSL has been exactly what I need. Working on projects within the Windows directories does feel slower, but I haven't noticed anything like 100x slowdowns. NPM installs are essentially the only part of my regular workflow that feels painful. Also it lets me work on my pet roguelike project during slow meetings, but that's our little secret....
