@wesgeorge @NoLifeKing @leo @cstross it's nuts though, you can run full GUI linux programs in WSL & work is very picky about what software's allowed in windows but WSL's very much "use any program in there, we don't care"

@patterfloof @wesgeorge @NoLifeKing @leo @cstross At my Real Job I work on a pretty niche GUI astronomy application with multiple interlocking components. We only officially support Linux and macOS, but... apparently it runs in WSL and everything Just Works. Truly we live in the future.
