Strong agree on the “target distro” or even “target specific env” versus Linux. I think I disagree on Windows being tightly coupled. Windows simply has a barre

I think I disagree on Windows being tightly coupled. Windows simply has a barren global library path. Programs merely included their extra DLLs adjacent to the exe. Very simple and reliable.
Linux has added complexity in that glibc sucks and is horribly architected. GCC/Clang are bad and depend on the local environment waaaay too much. Linux ecosystem is very much not built to support sharing cross compiled binaries. It’s so painful. :(
