"Ubuntu is now available on the Windows Store!!"

>Half the articles don't mention it's just a command line that is run within Windows, and the ones that do, still try to lure you with a clickbait title and first paragraph.

I'm not going to lie and pretend I didn't try to use it with x server but are you really surprised its just a terminal?
>>
>>62315642
I assume X doesn't work?
>>
>>62315642
not OP but I thought it was going to be a VM

>>62315653
X does work but not very well

>>62315832
Cool man, like I said, I just wanted to see if I could install X and have it work. Did zero research. I'll just use my linux install.

>>62315832

>>62315827
It never work.

>>62315653
That'a a good thing. X is insecure malware trash

>>62315832
