Ending Support for macOS and Linux

WSL2 (which im talking about ) is blazing fast. It runs a full linux kernel and not the WSL 1 NTFS emulation layer.

It has full Docker Edge support now and CUDA support is upcoming.

I'm genuinely impressed by WSL2

NTFS is a file system, which WSL 2 still runs on. WSL 2 is much better, but NTFS is still dragging it back. I hope one day, Microsoft will make a leap and introduce a faster file system or a proper support with good drivers for ext4 or something like this.

WSL2 is just a hyper-v container, which Docker for windows already used?

WinNT Kernel and Linux Kernel are running on top of Hypervisor platform side-by-side .... not one-in-the-other.
