I've quipped that the goal of GNOME is to make the desktop a single button, the most artistic, beautifully rendered button, that does nothing when you click it. Meanwhile, I use Windows 10. It's functional and with a few tweaks it is quite usable, moreso than macOS in my opinion which, along a similar path to GNOME, wants to make everything work like an iPhone: pretty buttons that do things when you tap them. WSL has been fine (mostly better than Cygwin even), and WSL 2 is out in the wild now which should make things even better once I get it. And VcXsrv is an entirely capable X server. -- Rich Pieri
