Biased is too weak a concept. It is a deliberate, principled choice of FSF/GNU/Emacs to advocate against Windows usage. They are, overall, in favor of some Windows support only in order to show Windows users the benefits and virtues of free software. The ultimate goal is that those users will move away from Windows, not that their Windows experience will be enriched. They knowingly favor these principles over greater success in the Windows world. https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/download.html#nonfree https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/download.html#nonfree Whether this is a realistic, good, or successful point of view, will clearly be debated endlessly, but Emacs' intentions should be understood clearly. IMO, there is a gray area between "such a bad experience that many Windows users will not see its value" and "so good that it's just another piece of good Windows software". Finding a practical balance, if it's even possible, would be another area for debate. There are surely mailing list archives that cover this, but I think the project would always strictly prioritize "avoid enriching the Windows experience" over "show Windows users how good Emacs is."
