It's the real curl[0]. I actually like the aliases and they've even added ctrl-shift paste in the options. Maybe they should be the default.
The windows filesystem still makes no sense but that's an NT issue (dropbox cant sync con.sh???). SSH has a surprisingly native feel but graphical apps (vim, screen) still have rendering problems, and the ssh-agent daemon isn't set up right by default.
Until they make Windows LTSC unusable, it's not _too_ horrible right now. But for a serious programming project there's still no question for me (but fix your damnable sound drivers Ubuntu).
