When you are stuck with Windows because of "company policy", WS2 and Docker is a mental sanity saviour. However, I miss so many little things. Simple things like highlighting text, getting automatically copied to buffer, and pasting with the middle button.

Windows is usable. As a desktop, it's stable. But I do miss Linux a lot.

@papaowl are you not using windows terminal?

@shanselman I spend too much time backspacing the "ll", "rm -rf" and other commands I do as a muscular memory. I'm resisting it without noticing. Sometimes need to tell myself to stop.

I like the simplicity to do "df -h" and find out if I need to take care of some logging cleanup. "Get-WmiObject -Class Win32_LogicalDisk" is not intuitive or easy to remember

@papaowl @shanselman aliases will help bridge the gap with WSL. I too am a serial “ll”-er, and will add an alias to ls -l as soon as I discover it isn’t available.
@bowmaan @shanselman ls -la --color please. Is there a simple way to make aliases in terminal?
@papaowl @bowmaan if you’re using bash, it’s just an alias so same as always, so that’s in .bashrc or profile. Are you asking about bash or powershell? (Shells != Terminals)
@shanselman @bowmaan I am using terminal with a PowerShell and a WSL running Ubuntu with zsh and all the jazz I'm used to. no issues there. I'm asking on powershell. is there a way to make aliases there?
@papaowl @shanselman Set-Alias / Get-Alias is really similar— it helps me juggle between bash, cmd, ps on a day to day basis. There’s several defaults preloaded like ps, kill, etc.
