My entry drug to Linux was WSL.

When I started at my current job I started with a dual boot machine (Windows/Linux) with the thought of testing Linux as a desktop OS out for a bit. After a year I realized I wasn't booting into the Windows installation anymore so I removed it.

Now 5 years on I am still as happy as ever. I am still struggling with some Adobe Creative Suite replacements, but in those 5 years things have gotten so much better already (and so much worse on the Windows-side) that I can see myself doing this for the long-term future.

There is just something relaxing about working on an OS that treats you with respect instead of trying to trick you into something constantly.
