MS365 from Linux is at times painful but not undoable, for example sharing ppts from teams is nice. In the browser it's anyway easier to have multiple teams windows open.

For everything development related, Windows just that thing that runs WSL2, and dropping the WS makes it better.

That describes my work experience right now... Mostly just slack, browser, vs code, and code/docker/etc is in WSL.

Though if I had to deal with the consumer windows garbage from win11 again at work, I'd start advocating for a full switch (I know at least 1/3 of devs would be with this, and it's a .Net/Azure shop mostly).
