Is WSL better for running containers? I find macos really annoying when dealing with containers, especially first setup.

It is baffling to me how many backend devs who work with containers all day don't understand that using containers on mac (and windows) requires a full-blown virtual machine. While in linux you just run them.

Much better IME, especially if you keep all development inside the wsl vm, too (which there is no reason to not do).

Ah right, WSL is already a linux VM so there is no need to run docker inside a VM again. I suppose one can do all dev work in macos inside a VM too which would achieve similar results, but I never seen anyone do that.
