devinprater,

Me a few years ago: Meh, at least I have Emacs with Emacspeak and a rather good user interface in MacOS.

Me, now: Awesome! I got Emacs with Emacspeak (through WSL), and a good enough user interface in Windows.

I mean I'm not saying I've found the best combination. I still have to learn to use Org-mode and the rest of Emacs effectively. But my goodness, right now this is about as good as it gets for me. I can browse the web really nicely, copy information and paste into Emacs, and the Gmail web interface is working as good as it did before the awful focus issues. Now, there is still the issue where if you leave your computer on long enough, and WSL is running, and the computer goes to sleep, Emacs will become sluggish. But just restart WSL and you're good. With desktop-mode enabled, your work should be saved, down to the buffers you had open. Of course, you could do C-x C-s in what you were working on before you wsl --shutdown. So that's something I can live with.
