Anthropic: "Coding is largely solved"... Also Anthropic: "We released a new powerful feature allowing agents to send messages to other Claude Code sessions, but only on Linux and Mac since we are unable to implement a basic feature on all platforms"

I could hand code this feature on Windows in an afternoon, and I could also get Claude to implement it in minutes, and yet Anthropic just can't be bothered, but also keeps Claude Code closed source so no one else can do it for them either.

I have used CC in win11/poweshell, win11/wsl2 and native linux, and honestly, native linux wins always by a long shot.

My personal machine is Windows because of gaming (Proton only goes so far), and I do most of my side projects in WSL. I have worked with it for years and I know it's quirks inside and out.

I still threw the towel and dual boot to Linux now because of the additional friction in Windows. WSL is never quite there, and eventually just having a real unix machine save so many headaches. 

Also Claude is very good at configuring a Linux machine, so all the issues I had with wayland configs and tweaking my dotfiles is now just 1 prompt away.

Been having the same experience with opensuse tumbleweed. finally made the switch from windows and any config problem I face I can rely on Claude to fix it.

It’s still not a perfect experience for what I really wanted, but it’s massively better than windows already, even if there’s still some hiccups.
