    Depends on use case. If Ubuntu is what you yourself like best? Then yeah totally.

    I installed WSL, to install Ubuntu, to install Hackintosh, so I could VNC my self into it on my work laptop for testing apps on it.

    So yeah, not bad.

    Is Proton a Debian-based distro?

    Why use Wine? All it does is emulate Windows.

    WSL invalidates Linux's existence.

    Linus is the Colonel of Linux.

    How to piss off a Linux guy in 3 steps:

    Step 1: Use Windows

    Step 2: Encounter a computer problem and ask the Linux guy for a solution.

    Step 3: When they say they don't know Windows, mock them for being so stupid despite staying in the terminal playing pretend hackerman all day.

    1. Terrible choice, but if it works for you...
    2. For some use-cases, sure.
    3. wine program.exe
    4. "Then what have I been playing Pong on all this time?"
    5. It is, actually. WSL isn't "proper" Linux, but it's there!
    6. Yeah, imagine...

    Ugh you don't need to write 30 million lines of code to install a browser. You need to compile 30 million lines of code to install a browser. πŸ™„

    #5 is actually true. Install Ubuntu for WSL from the Windows store. WSL is great BTW

    1- No, Windows 11 mains you

    2- Yes, ubuntu is much larger than arch

    3- We have many ways to install anything

    4- No, but neither does Windows, who at Microsoft is troubleshooting your games?

    5- Yes! But Windows works much better on linux than linux does on Windows

    6- Imagine 30 million lines to fix your last update

    For three, say "command prompt" instead.

    In fairness, several major distros are available on the Microsoft store.

    How awesome is Windows? I mean the way it runs so smooth…you can like process a lot of processing with the processor. Like if they added AI to the ESC key, that would really be awesome.
