Yall people should just switch to Linux and stop acting like you have Stockholm Syndrome to Redmond.

Linux is too cool for school. I use Mint and Windoze 11. For slackers, Linux is not lacking.

if anyone who has windows wants to easily try linux, you can start admin powershell and type WSL —install

Restart your computer when prompted.

Upon rebooting, the installation will finalize and prompt you to create a new Linux username and password

By default, this installs Ubuntu, but to view and install other Linux distributions, run wsl —list —online.

I don’t have the option. The OS for me is nothing. It is my engineering software that dictates what I have. I would love to dump windows. But saving $100 on the OS when I spend $20k for software makes the decision easy.

[Still Thinking]

Would love to, given Microshaft’s business model and behavior.

In fact, glad you’re here, I can use your help. Which Linux distro supports programming for Allen-Bradley, Siemens, Omron, and Do-More BRX PLCs?
