Yeah, GNU utilities are a good idea. I also have a pretty nice (quite large screen) Chromebook (approaching EOL, thanks a bunch Google) and I've used the Linux subsystem a lot and of course it works with standard apt since it's Debian. But it does have issues when it comes to lack of flexibility dealing with USB and other oddities. I've actually run fairly complicated flatpaks on it, but one annoyance is that the startup time for the subsystem (to get a shell prompt) is, well, annoying. I've had to go through some pretty complicated bash scripts and such to make things work the way I really want to. I'll have to figure out how to integrated the Neo into my network -- I use sshfs extensively.
