Windows development -- specially if you develop with a terminal editor -- has become very feasible with WSL. I was scared away from Apple by the keyboards and found a new dev home in Windows. I've tried to go back for personal projects

I'd like to note here that while the vim versions of OS distros get updated every now and then, Bram does a fantastic job of releasing multiple times per week and vim is easy to compile. I compile it every week (I use it as my IDE -- t
