>shell isn't cross-platform

basically every operating system has a posix shell by default except windows, but it has been ported there multiple times, samba existed for decades and WSL is on the rise. It may sound a little more irritating but they deserve it for still running windows :p /hj (besides you can just host an ssh server)

I mean, I could also tell you "Just download and run PowerShell, it's ported to Linux", but you also know that would make you feel like a second-class citizen, because you know it's not something as good as something that actually works on your platform in a real sense.
