Wsl is a piece of joke, like seriously why. If you want an actual linux, install it on bare metal. If you want to try out, then virtualbox. If you need a good integration with the system with native performance, Termux. WSL works with hyperv which is hard to set up and breaks all the time, plus you are forced to use microsoft’s kernel which is riddled with who knows what. Plus wsl consumes insane amount of space. I don’t think we really need this to windows, it was just a desperate attempt from microsoft to get sympathy from Linux users, but they didn’t convice me with this trashpile

Why WSL? Because I’d be setting up a Linux VM anyway.
