wsl2 has been very very stable for me. in fact, i have spent a lot of time in the last 6 months on wsl2 (FYI - fedora is my main)

i really recommend trying out wsl2. you now can install it from the window store.

Yep, I know people love it. It sent my machine into a boot loop till I could uninstall it in safe mode.

I'll live with a dedicated VM for now.

Yeah I’ve never had issues. I’ve used Linux as a daily driver since Vista came out so wsl has been nice for me. I can finally have a gaming PC that can also serve as a docker server and just generally test my backend on. With that said my two coworkers, who are very much Windows daily driver users, have had nothing but issues. Some times I think my Linux knowledge is what’s helped me here, ironically.
