Cygwin is currently the bane of my existence.
I'm working on software, that was originally written in CORAL and running on mainframes and then translated to C to run on UNIX.
Company policy is, that all programs have to run on Windows, so nowadays we work with Cygwin
Don't get me wrong, it works, but there a thousand annoying things, bugs an inconveniences.
I'm currently spearheading an effort to migrate to wsl2 (and docker). The developer experience is vastly better on wsl.
