    Same here. I primarily use WSL2 as my dev environment. Everything outside that is native apps for collab and tooling.

      Sure, if you just use Linux for dev, with a Windows hypervisor, you won’t notice the difference.

      We devs also have a serious issue of performance blindness, because generally work and test on pretty beefy machines. Windows 11 is undeniably heavier on the system than Linux, and Mac hardware flies anyway. If your dev machine is beefy enough, you won’t really notice though.

        Yeah I always have high end systems.

        I dont disagree that windows sucks. I just don’t see it as a major issue for doing dev. As you say, that’s correlated to my high end system
