This isn’t really a counterpoint to what I’m saying.
Windows 10 has tons of stuff that I don’t like. But the advancements in WSL and open source are a good thing.
By all means, apply pressure to Microsoft for things that they do wrong, and for bad decisions they make. But when they’re doing a good thing, maybe the default stance shouldn’t be to speculate about ill intent. Sometimes it’s nice to just enjoy the good thing.
