Aldar98418d@notSoCoolGuy Never used VSCode as I'm not a programmer or a developer, I take care of server administration instead :P
Most of the time, I work remotely through an SSH session anyway. So all that matters is the GUI and usability functions. -
JustThat221918dI agree. WSL2 and Windows Terminal is a nice combo.
I can now run a full linux subsystem without having to install cygwin and manage/work in it using a native Windows app. -
ostream74918dWSL is looting, they have no merit for stealing decades of open-source work to make their shitty OS barely decent.

RememberMe1485817dWindows Terminal is awesome, makes sshing to Linux workstation servers so pleasant
Plus the CRT retro shader effect is awesome -
junon295117dWindows Terminal is mostly okay. Definitely a huge step-up from anything they've done before.
WSL2 is going to cause you issues, though. WSL1 has been absolutely great for me (aside from the root escalation vulnerability I found...) WSL2 has been having a TON of issues for people corrupting files and whatnot. -

It's not everyday that I give Microsoft praise, but damn, the new Windows Terminal is... Surprisingly decent.
Together with WSL2, it allowed me to switch from working in a VM to working fully from Windows.
And with little tweaking of the settings file, it acts exactly the way I like.
Good job creating something modern, almost universal and usable Microsoft!
