Does anyone run Emacs with wsl2? I've noticed that fonts are quite a bit less crisp than they could be. On the left is running Emacs on a native terminal, on the right is the gui application. (alien.top)

I don't know much about wsl but they probably want to develop on headless linux why still being able to use GUI Emacs.

That doesn’t make any sense. WSL is not a headless Linux.

It actually is, you can't run a desktop enviroment with it for example but it does let you open linux gui apps to be used from windows.

That’s exactly why it’s not headless.
