I think it is, but that's all I think it is. I installed this and played with it and I honestly couldn't think of a single Linux-only app that I wanted to run.

- ksaj 5y agoI can't think of a single Windows-only app that I want to run. Ninety nine percent of Linux software is easy to port to Windows if it hasn't been already. And everything that is worth porting from Windows to Linux, licenses and all besides, already have been as well. These are both modern operating systems, so you won't find many things missing if apps are the only criteria. This is definitely meant to allow Linux users more capabilities on Windows. The fact that Microsoft is treating WSL and Powershell in the same way is illuminating. It's not meant to turn Windows users into Linux fans. I can't even imagine what they could do to make either one OS that awe inspiring to the other. You either need what the one operating system provides, or you need what the other provides, at the OS level. If you don't know about or how to search out those differences, you aren't the audience. The available apps are meaningless since all the good ones are already across the board.
