Please support powershell on Linux
I'm not familiar with that - powershell is a windows thing, why would anyone use it on linux?

By using PowerShell, many features are added to the terminal. Additionally, we want to use a unified terminal across all environments.
I’d expect the way to do that is WSL - iow, using the universal thing on windows, instead of trying to make everything else match the outlier.

What do you mean?

If you want "all environments", then a windows-only solution is never going to achieve that - since Windows has linux via WSL, the only available "all environments" solution is one that works on linux (and WSL2).
How is powershell not also an "all environments" solution? It runs on Linux and macOS as well
ok, fair - that truly is brand new information for me - but either way, it's not POSIX-compliant, so it's unlikely nvm can ever add support for it. However, since it's available on those OS's, a PR could certainly be made that would run tests on it - at which point, I could look into fixing them.
Instead of installing a windows tool on non-windows machines, you'll be much better off using a non-windows tool whenever the option is available - then the only environment you have to change is the least-desirable one.
