Microsoft have been very good at figuring out which features they need to add for developers, but the actual experience of using Windows is not great.

Part of the problem is that they are adding stuff without taking anything away. My Windows development machine manages to be both overstuffed with multiple shells, run-times etc., and have quirks or issues with almost everything that I care about. I just want a Bash shell, Python, SSH and a package manager that all work.
