After Microsoft changed its strategy from FUD smear campaigns to EEE corporate assimilation, Linux interoperability has become significantly better. My colleagues all have Ubuntu terminals on their WSLs, and it all seems to work pretty great.

I don't know why Microsoft technology triggers me so much.

I have been a big fan of C#, VSCode, LSP, GitHub Actions.

I'm sure it's an instinctive reaction to their aesthetic.
