WSL isn't great and tends to be unreliable compared to a full VM. You'd likely need to run a Linux VM without a GUI, connect via PuTTY with X forwarding, and use tools like xming. This setup would perform much better than the WSL version that barely runs Firefox after messing with X forwarding.

For anything without a GUI, it performs exceptionally well. It operates directly on your system's resources, using only what you need and retaining access until the session ends.

In the future they must include access to a GPU compatible with CUDA, which isn't feasible right now

From my perspective as a Linux user, this might seem intriguing, but the likelihood of actually using it is minimal. I’m more inclined to switch to Windows eventually.

That's bittersweet, but everyone has their own way.
