If you liked the experience I strongly recommend you WSL2 with Alpine Linux, is a 4.x Mb download (AlpineWSL). Surely is a bit different to any distro (size wise, is meant for containers) but you'll get the hang of it, and if you don't like it you can always install the GNU utils (is more BSD than GNU) or simply use another distro that is not based in musl/busybox.
