I worked in a Linux shop for a while. I miss native Linux but WSL2 with VS Code is a reasonable substitute.

The only difficulty is file sharing. Especially with git repositories. Never make the mistake of managing you git repos within Windows. Good bye permissions.

Isn't this true only for WSL1 and pretty much solved with WSL2? I'm sure that haven't seen any issues. Maybe I'm wrong.

I wish it were. The files are available over something like a Samba share. So any permissions Windows doesn't support are dropped.

It's possible I don't understand and am doing something wrong.
