From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).

Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Dude just stick WSL on it. Makes the Winderps somewhat less torturous to deal with, though it’s not perfect because it’s still virtualized. Also your container performance is gonna absolutely suck due to the required virtualization layer.

WSL2 is pretty good. I get better performance running emberjs than my coworkers stuck on Mac do lol

I mean, yeah. Modern MBPs are all ARM architecture now, which introduces another translation layer into the virtualization.
