Seconding WSL, but that kinda proves the point. The solution to making Windows dev better was to add Linux.
Not OP, But WSL and its recent improvements come to mind. If you're deploying on a Linux box it makes it pretty seamless to develop.
So Windows is better than Linux because it allows you to use a restricted version of Linux?
And the full version of windows. Honestly I love Linux with Wine for the same reason. I just encounter more hiccups that way rather than the WSL route. It's just more complicated to emulate GUIs.
