Could you explain more?

I know installing and switching to WSL2 isn't as straightforward on windows stable. Is that what you are referring to?

If so, on insider - you can run wsl --install and it will work.

If not running wsl2 by default, wsl --set-default-version 2

I think they could make it easy to onboard users by setting better defaults and decreasing friction.

I had to fight with enabling/disabling Hyper-V in windows features for a while, and also somewhere I flashed the BIOS on my motherboard and it reset my virtualization-enable switch to "off" (which I guess was the default?)

50/50 PEBKAC and Windows being difficult, IMO, but my total unfamiliarity with troubleshooting windows made the process a bit more annoying than I felt it ought to be.
