I used to work for company where they used to force windows. And it was pure torture. I tried but they told me performance isn't a good reason....

I set up mine with WSL and used a Linux terminal over xserver. Once you have a decent unix shell (and a good terminal) it's fine. VSCode etc work fine. This was 2020ish, things might've gotten easier now.

But I do prefer a Linux or Mac for development, just because it's so much less hassle to set up.

Windows developers who don't set up a good terminal environment... I honestly don't know how they manage.
