As always, it's all about the tooling. For better or worse, more is moving to web/electron, but for teams using Sketch, good luck trying to open Sketch file on Windows.
After getting a Windows gaming PC, I've been spending more and more of my time, developing and otherwise, on PC. I prefer it because it's where I have my large (low DPI :( ) monitor, but Windows is still full of so many papercuts in general usage (I miss being able to drag a file into a Open File dialog so much) that I still greatly prefer using macOS.
Windows has some niceties to try and make the transition better - The Windows Terminal app is pheonomial, and Powershell tries to map rm to whatever the Powershell command is - rm -rf doesnt work as expected though. I honestly don't find myself using WSL all that much - I only use it when I can't figure out how to make ping go forever in Powershell.
- vvpan 6y agoDidn't Microsoft make an effort to bring Linux into Windows a few years back? Is that no longer a thing?
- madeofpalk 6y agoThat's WSL. It's still there, and it's super easy to use (new Terminal tab > Ubuntu), but I just find I don't have much of a need for it. I do web development with Node, which runs fine under windows. https://imgur.com/a/n19qb8M https://imgur.com/a/n19qb8M
