Are you just saying that Windows users longer need to use PuTTY or similar?

That sounds convenient but leaves me wondering what particularly about that quality of life improvement changes how you view Windows.

Back when I had to use Windows for work (around 2018) it boggled my mind how there was no terminal app that I liked. CMD: Sucks. Powershell: Sucks. Powershell ISE: Sucks. cmder: Not great but it's the best thing I found.

If I was starting out today I could just use Windows Terminal and worry about other things, making me view Windows not quite so unfavorably.

Yeah Putty worked great but was a bit-unorthodox compared to openssh.

Other interesting change is unix style \n line endings working everywhere even notepad.

Its also combined with other changes like browser hosting most apps, vscode being used on linux/mac which is still Windows first class.

Still many unix tools dont work well which is why wsl is handy. docker is handy too.

PuTTY is used for SSH or Telnet, right? Windows 10 has had SSH built in for some time.
