MinGW/MSYS2 are flaming poop hurdles. That’s the bending over backwards to fake a hacky ass bad dev environment. Projects that only support MinGW on Windows are projecting “don’t take windows seriously”.

Supporting Windows without MinGW garbage is really really easy. Only supporting MinGW is saying “I don’t take this platform seriously so you should probably just ignore this project”.
