Thank you from an Ubuntu-using software dev!

The website (https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/wsl/install-win10) brings me here when I click submit feedback for this product, so I hope this issue isn't cluttering things up.

I just wanted to say thanks for all the work that goes into producing a tool like this. It has literally changed my life as a developer since I tried it last week. I was waiting a few years for it to mature more to try to use it to replace using Ubuntu as my main OS for development work.

I'm in a sticky situation now where the latest version of Ubuntu doesn't work well with my PC hardware (nvidia drivers, issues with portrait mode on some cards, weird stuff). I tried this though, and I can work just as productively as I can on Ubuntu, without the hardware issues. I was able to follow the VS Code docs on the remote extension and set it up without running into any issues, aside from the complexity of learning how the Windows interop works (I ended up turning it off to keep things simple for me). Now, I have the Ubuntu terminal I'm familiar with, all my CLI tools work perfectly, and I get to keep using the my preferred code editor. And, when I'm done the work day, I can game without even having to switch OSes. It's brilliant.

Once again, thank you for putting in the effort to create this. :)
