One issue with windows command line I’ve run into recently is text rendering performance. Running cxxmatrix at a high resolution brings even a modestly powerful machine to its knees. cxxmatrix crashes alacritty, but I have found that running VcXsrv and urxvt from wsl yields much better cxxmatrix performance than when running from wsl.

Here is a related issue. There are many cousin issues.
