For context (since someone on Reddit incorrectly objected to this meme): The original Expanding Brain was sarcastic in that bigger brains represented worse options.

      WSL has worked perfectly for my use case of “I need Linux to interact with the cluster I work on at school but I don’t have the time to maintain the hobbyist OS on my personal computers”

      For what it’s worth, a chromebook using crouton to dualboot xfce was also good enough for what I needed, so I’m not exactly a power user

        Windows is spyware that you pay for, and that’s reason enough for me. I hate Google too, but I have to at least admit that they at least give you pretty good free stuff in exchange for being spyware (at least that was the case the last time I used any of their products anyways, been quite a while since and given the current enshittification of many big tech platforms, wouldn’t be all too surprised if they followed suit).
