After using WSL for 6 years to do 99% of my work, our IT finally started to support Linux, so I re-imaged my notebook immediately. It’s not perfect and we do have some mandatory security and backup solutions that slow things down a bit, but the good news is that they allow us to re-nice them, so it’s not that big of a deal. The biggest challenge is Libre Office versus MS Office, because things don’t always convert the formatting correctly, but it’s still worth the hasle to avoid Windows PITA issues.
