A windows compatible OS is a good idea but it looks more likely to be Linux.

As someone who very much dislikes the Linux/Unix philosophy, I'm happy to see diversity.

Out of pure curiosity, what do you “very much dislike” about it?

Heh… Wait ‘til I tell him that his beloved macOS is Unix underneath.

		I know and I don't like that either. But at least I don't have to touch the Unix layer too often.

You mean Windows subsystem for Linux.

Having a full Windows desktop with a Linux install saves me from formatting and partitioning into yet another installation mess that Linux still has and choosing a distro while not messing around with display managers or searching around why some apps do not display correctly when connecting to an external monitor.

The best Linux distro is Windows (with WSL).
