VSCode with remote ssh is the main reason I'm not on Linux anymore. I always liked Windows more for everyday use (I know that's a rather unpopular opinion here)

VSCode with remote ssh is the main reason I'm not on Linux anymore. I always liked Windows more for everyday use (I know that's a rather unpopular opinion here) but needed Linux for development work.
With remote SSH it feels like I'm developing on Linux (I use a small VM for that) without having to change my OS. Plus, it makes switching between machines much easier.

I can go from playing games on the platform that’s received the most attention (which is nice when a Linux port is broken or for some reason doesn’t play nice with proton) to programming and hacking in a familiar environment. The exception is when I’m screwing with Linux specific hardware, as WSL doesn’t have USB or PCIe pass through afaik.
