      cons:

      • has to enable linux containers
      • can’t use native filesystem for emulated applications because it’s a completely different environment
      • potential for performance issues given that it’s literally a non standard environment
      • wastes a bunch of disk space
      • requires an entire secondary system to be maintained and updated

      pros:

      • can technically run linux applications

      Bad examples. Just running some program is not an argument. Even Windows can run most Linux programs in WSL, but does not mean it’s Linux.

        He asked and said he’d wait, I just took the straight up easy route and grabbed the first video off search. I honestly don’t know much about Linux, but I’m learning more every day.

        Chrome books seem like they’re closer to Linux than Windows is though, right?
