Congrats!

Just one question: In the past, postmaster had problems with WSL2.

I documented the issue and the solution: https://www.reddit.com/r/safing/comments/ryioj7/portmaster_b...

Is it fixed now?

We still don't have first-class support for VMs, but it will come.

Did you read the link?

Just add a PowerShell script at install time to exempt the virtual network interfaces from Windows Firewall if WSL is detected and the user agrees! It's super simple and easy.
