Reply to comment by Vin_Diesels_Dead_BF in Microsoft's Windows Subsystem for Linux just hit a major milestone by CrankyBear

I think this will be an Android Subsystem part II.

I mean nice in theory, but pretty useless for the vast majority of people. They should focus on more relevant stuff, like Windows on ARM.

I, as an average person, can't think of a single linux-only app that I would want or need.

This is not for you, 'the average person'. This meant for developers whose develop on windows but have to test/deploy into linux. They can do it now within windows, as they can use remote development from the windows host into the wsl2 instance with VSCode or VS. Microsoft is focused mostly on developers/companies, because they bring them the big money, not the average home user.
