<<Casual thought. Is there a way you can distinguish between the different alternatives a bit better? That is, after finishing reading the section about Windows, you go into talking about installing Nix on your OS and still discuss Windows in that section, which gives the impression that it's the next step to follow (...but of course, Nix doesn't work on Windows native and all of the earlier Stack/HIE instructions will need to be done again if you do want to install Nix inside WSL or a VM).

From the Reddit thread, I can kind of tell (wink) that you want to encourage people not to develop on Windows. So maybe you can title the sections:

Or even put your recommended install method first and the Windows alternatives toward the bottom>> - _Pete on Discord
