    You complain about OS recomendations under OS related posts?

      I think in threads where an obviously well-informed computer user asks a question about how to accomplish something or troubleshoot something in Windows, it’s pretty much never helpful to recommend using Linux instead. They probably know about Linux. They either must, or want to use Windows. It’s a pretty common occurrence, however.

      Though these days, you might get to recommend Linux anyway by saying “you should use wsl2.”

        You really really shouldn’t. It sucks in a number of ways neither Windows nor Linux do by themselves.

          It definitely has many compromises and I wouldn’t use it for hosting something in production or something like that. (Is that something people do?) It is situationally very useful though, usually for things I used to spin up a VM for. I’m happy to have it available as a tool when I need to use Windows.
