Actually, I believe inotify was added back in 2016 (https://devblogs.microsoft.com/commandline/wsl-adds-inotify-...)

It's still an issue in 2019: https://github.com/Microsoft/WSL/issues/3292

In ubuntu you have to pass the --disable-inotify flag and the Debian version (without this flag) simply doesn't work.

Not the person you're replying to but I believe docker just hasn't added support. There's been a few issues regarding it open for a long time with no movement at all.
