They probably know about Linux. They either must, or want, to use Windows. It’s a pretty common occurrence, however.
Though these days, you might get to recommend Linux anyway by saying “you should use wsl2.”

You really really shouldn’t. It sucks in a number of ways neither Windows nor Linux do by themselves.

It definitely has some compromises and I wouldn’t use it for hosting something in production or something like that. (Is that something people do?) It is situationally very useful though, usually for things I used to spin up a VM for. I’m happy to have it available as a tool when I need to use Windows.
