A comment on Windows 11: Just say no.

If WSL2 is your killer Windows application, then upgrade to Windows 11 whenever you can. WSL2 on Windows 10 suffers from some FS corruption bug [1]. The bug is currently fixed only in Windows 11 Insider Builds. It is uncertain if/when the fix will be backported to WSL2 for Windows 10.

But other than that, Windows 11 is mostly Windows 10 with a different shell. So it's not like it will disrupt your workflow or something.

It's cool you don't have to do anything to get it to work now, just install distro and bam!
