I know… I know.
But just out of curiosity about how it works. I remember back in some dark days of still dual booting getting curious about wsl1 and being fairly impressed. At the time I had a heavy gaming laptop and a Surface 3 I would take to class to keep my STEM student physic rather than going body builder moving an alienware around.
Having wsl was a neat tool to get started on some homework assignments before I got home to the real computer. Given that Windows ARM has been kind of a let down (or perhaps Apple just set too high a bar) I am curious about how this niche has turned out.
I think it’s more convenient to their overall design of modern Windows, IIRC by default it’ll install the running version of Windows to a hypervisor also. For their purposes, for the majority of users, there would be little to no performance losses.
