- rbanffy 4y agoI use it, but I'm not saying I enjoy it - it's a bit limited - WSL1 feels more like Cygwin, and WSL2 more like a VM, but none is fully integrated into the environment. I've been in the situation where I needed to config VSCode plugins to use one of the WSL environments and I'm never sure which `git` is being run (if it's the one that runs on Windows, the one in the WSL1, or the one under WSL2. The machine also disagrees with itself about what constitutes an end-of-line marker. I'd honestly be much happier if the company either gave me a Mac (new office teething problems - third employee in the country - made my original order lost in transit, never to be found again) or allowed me to rip out Windows and install a saner OS on the hardware, which, apart from the UK keyboard, is not terrible.
