I've worked as a web dev on Linux for nearly 15 years (most of it Ubuntu). My day job requires that I work on Windows 10 and I'm sorry to say this, but from a developer's perspective it does feel like an inferior user experience. To cope I've tried the WLS, but it didn't really do it, then I was able to somewhat cope a bit with Cygwin. Still it's not the same. I miss the extra desktops. I miss the ability to install a proper tiling window manager with sane keybindings (I use i3 so please don't even mention Power Toys). I miss simply configuring stuff with simple text files, instead of pointing and clicking to open layers after layers of windows to simply change one value, which can also turn even the simplest tutorial into a headache (try installing a wsgi server on IIS). I also miss having my configuration respected without agenda, rather than seeing some applications somehow capable of vetoing my choice of a browser, or my language preferences. I miss ubiquitous utilities that are just sort of expected to be there by anything you install, like cron. Oh, how I miss the shell (please don't even utter "PowerShell"), would you believe that I even miss Bash as a language after trying batch files? I miss a whole lot of other things and looking for replacements on Windows, it's especially annoying that everything that MS produces is promoted as the next best thing to sliced bread, so you're never really sure if the solution you're being sold is just pure shite, or if it's really worth your time. And on that note, I would never believe that I would miss the capricious Linux community, because it doesn't matter how good Canonical gets it on a release, we're guaranteed to have laments about the millions things they got wrong this time. But it's only when you decide to take a stroll on the neighbor's grass that you realize how green yours really is, right?
