I've recently given up on unix-type shells on Windows. Whether it's WSL1, WSL2, WSLg, MSYS2 or Cygwin, there's always compatibility quirks or performance issues that just reminds me that "it's not Linux". So I decided to just bite the bullet and go all in on PowerShell. It's still not a great default CLI experience but it can be made acceptable with plugins. But the real strength is in scripting, it's a good mix of high-level language and shell terseness.
