OTOH building on windows takes literally multiple times the time it takes for building the same software on the same machine / SSD on linux. And that's something that I do every day, multiple times per day.
Have you tried WSL? I didn't like WSL 1, and early months of WSL2 were buggy af... but for the past 2 months, since I needed windows again, WSL2 with Docker Desktop support has been really nice.
The VS Code remote wsl and ssh support has also been invaluable.
