I'm not sure I follow; it's an advantage that it doesn't work well on Windows?

  Might help encourage you to move away from Windows.

    I have plenty of reasons to move away from Windows, and also plenty of reasons to stay. :) But I think it's overall a net-negative that there is no simple way to use LuaRocks on Windows. I don't believe in gatekeeping, especially when so many programmers still begin their journey on Windows.

      It’s not gatekeeping. Maintaining for Windows is a huge cost to damn near everyone involved.

        Perhaps, but the majority of PC users are on Windows, so it's a bit cheeky to imply not having Windows support is an advantage.
