    I have a few issues with videos about development on Windows:
    - They often don’t discuss the DX (Developer Experience) aspects.
    - They overlook resource usage.
    - I don’t understand the frequent recommendation to use WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux) for development on Windows. It can consume excessive amounts of RAM and CPU in many cases. It’s often simpler to use Linux directly.
    - Unless you’re a .NET developer, Windows can be quite limiting. As a power user, I find Windows less effective for development.
    - I’ve tried a similar setup on Windows with a few containers, WSL for development (even though I need to deploy on Linux), and multiple browser tabs. It used up all 24 GB of RAM (around 80%).
    - On Linux, the same setup only used about 10 GB of RAM, and the device ran cooler compared to Windows.
    - I don’t dislike Windows-it has its benefits-but it can be problematic for development purposes.
    - The same issues apply to macOS if you’re heavily using Docker or Kubernetes.

    Hello nice and cool communty, i didnt saw the video at all bc i hate with all myself windows. I use it for gaming in my main desktop and I double booted my laptop with tiny11 and linux distro (currently kali but I wanna change it)
    Im currently studying in italian school and this year we will do php and database with Microsoft Access and xampp so I surely have to keep a windows istance for Microsoft Access.
    When Im out of school i will continue to study by myself java(that I already know) and AWS.
    I actively used linux env for 2 years and its awsome, I have tryied and preferred mint bc is very cool but I usually install a lot of varius distros for know if the experience is better or worst than mint (that I love).
    After this all shit, can someone recomment me a distro/the way for my role? So now Php, M. Access(important), and for the future Java and Aws.
