Remoting is a bit hobbled I find. For example I'd love to be able to run vim in a powershell remoting session, but it doesn't seem to work.


That's largely because that's not really how Microsoft envisions you using PowerShell. The Windows way is to run the tool locally, edit the resource remotely (kind of like Emacs' TRAMP mode v. Vim users always sshing into the box). In this way, I kind of view PowerShell's direct remoting (i.e., Enter-PSSession) as a complete misfeature.


Even with the UNIX subsystem installed?
