I'm desperately doing it a different way. I managed to beat off our corporate IT overlords and kept hold of windows 10 for a long time. I'm using that, virtualbox with debian in it and PuTTY. Far more reliable than WSL. I will switch to windows 11 at the last moment and spend a week doing exactly the same there.

They won't let me have a Linux box because I'm supposed to be a windows desktop dev (now about 10% of my workload) and they don't like Linux because none of the invasive security and VPN crap they add works on it.

I use a Mac at home. Mostly proper Unix at your fingertips. Feels much less dirty than either solution.
