I used to have this problem. Ended up running an Ubuntu desktop VM on the Windows machine. Developed and tested in the VM. Then I realized I didn’t need windows in the way (or spying on me) so I decided went native Ubuntu desktop.

This doesn’t work for me because I find the Ubuntu desktop experience to be quite horrible. It’s very janky way too often. I very much prefer working with headless Ubuntu instances since this is where Linux excels for my use cases. For GUI stuff I look elsewhere.
