Curious on the experiences of those recently migrating to Linux from Windows 10, Intel-based MacOS, etc. How is it being on Linux? Anything surprise or frustrate you?

I believe it's only installable from the Microsoft app store, which relies on windows dependencies not available in wine. It is not a .exe file.

I have tried running windows 10 in a virtual machine and accessing it through that... It does work, but it's very clunky.
