I absolutely loathe WSL at work. Users with local non-AD connected systems (which bypass GPOs) install it, then start making highly insecure configurations that result in PII nightmares.

It’s a goddamned cancer riddled bastard child of Linux and Windows that needs the Ol’ Yeller treatment.

Dang. WSL is literally the only thing that maintains my sanity when I am forced to do anything on Windows. I don’t work in an enterprise environment, mind you.

That was the shit for a long time, but it doesn’t give you Linux containers.
