No change really.
"Ubuntu on Windows allows one to use Ubuntu Terminal and run Ubuntu command line utilities including bash, ssh, git, apt and many more"
If you want a GUI, you still need to do it the proper way.
i.e. Install Linux as a VM or direct to disk.

The Windows subsystem for Linux is aimed primarily at developers.
In theory if you install a Windows X-server, Xming is one of several available, graphical applications can be run.
In practice, much like WINE on Linux, some graphical applications will run easily, some will need configs tweaked, and some will not run at all.

I suppose this at least allows use of ssh, scp and sftp (secure connections); thus allowing you to run a Raspberry Pi in headless mode.

I expect most Windows users would choose PuTTY for that.

That PuTTY thing looks awful to setup.

I've never actually tried it; did consider installing it on Linux once but I already had ssh et al already configured on server & client so PuTTY seemed a little superfluous (I'm maybe doing it a disservice).

Really isn't difficult to setup or use.
Nowadays I'll often use JuiceSSH or Connectbot on an Android device rather than booting up my PC to manage my Pis for example, coz it's more convenient.

Once you have got ssh set up, then you just type ssh + parameters...(at least if you have a Linux terminal window)
It's just a one line command, so configuring extra stuff just seems unnecessary.
