Why would you want Linux anymore when Windows 10 has fixed their bash issues?

Ok having now spent the last few days trying a bunch of different options and reading lots of articles I can easily say windows + launchbox is miles above everything else. It's payware and closed source, but $20 isn't bad and it's actively developed. The free version is amazing too but does require a mouse+keyboard since the bigbox ui is disabled. So for a dedicated emulator box plugged into a TV you need the premium version.

I wouldn't call WSL a meat substitute that doesn't taste like meat at all. It is genuinely running genuine binaries compiled for linux, so it has the same behaviour in most cases. Sure, you don't really have the ability to run anything graphical, but it's often nicer than rebooting or using a VM, and isn't as much of a pain as cygwin.

I think I'm going to start streaming daily, at least on the weekdays. Tonight I'm doing a playthrough of the talos principle if anyone is interested.
