On: Eshell as a main shell

Agreed. I've run Linux for years with no issues whatsoever.

I feel that people who criticize the platform have yet to try it...

Though to be fair, if your are running Photoshop or final cut Linux is not a great use case

So clearly no one else has issues, right? None of the people complaining about poor power management, insane application deployment model, poor support for high-end GPUs, general fragmentation, poor backwards and forwards compatibility, or any of the other innumerable problems have ever tried a Linux desktop.

This attitude of "it works for me, therefore it is good enough for everybody" is one of the biggest problems I have with Linux. It isn't so much that there are flaws, it's that the community refuses to recognize that there are flaws.

I think there are many problems running Linux like everything you said and things like HiDPi but I just don't think I could dev on windows.

That's fair, as long as you aren't an evangelical trying to convert me to the linux desktop I don't have a problem with you using whatever you want.
