Best WSL till date!
What do you like best about the product?
When I started my ruby on rails journey, I had a windows laptop. But setup of rails required linux based terminal. Windows didn't had it. Seniors told me to use Ubuntu server. I was so much excited to finally develop rails based application using Ubuntu Server. I made it easier for. Later on I installed ubuntu OS itself as WSL is still not fast enough for rails development.

Overall, need to improve basic color themes otherwise it's best for it's purpose.

Ubuntu - Linux Operating System distribution
What do you like best about the product?
Ubuntu has a better advantage than any other Linux distribution . No distribution is better than each other whether it’s fedora , Ubuntu , mint or others . all are equivalent . But Ubuntu has advantages over other Linux distribution , if i compare Fedora with Ubuntu , Fedora a poor choice for product development e.g. embedded systems , people used to say fedora is fast in fixing things but fedora also fast in breaking things . Ubuntu advantage is large based of package with stability which fedora or other do miss it .Ubuntu maintain consistency when it’s about fixing things but others do break things quicker than ubuntu even they fix quick

Application or file searching on Ubuntu 17/18.
