I really like the Windows Linux Subsystem. Being able to work on a single all purpose machine with 8GB of RAM and not have to worry about a virtual machine for doing Linuxy dev work is a blessing. I still get all the graphics hardware acceleration and driver support of audio stuff, software compatibility, all with the trade off of not having direct hardware/kernel access from the Linux world. So I can't do netfilter stuff (packet management), but for user space stuff and general coding it's great.
