WSL2 runs at close-to-native or native speed when you limit your work to terminal. However beyond that: - I oftentimes need to run some GUI linux apps from inside the WSL2 -> and scaling (needed on a 4K screen) is really troublesome. No need to say that fractional scaling is nonexistent. - when logging to a remote machine (from WSL2) via ssh with X forwarding, and launching GUI apps remotely, the lags are so bad that it is hardly workable even on an ultra-fast network connection to the remote machine. Different from that, everything is butter smooth from a native Linux. - when I needed to create a user with a specific user ID (not 1000) I found that it somehow does not work full in WSL2, whereas it is just a stanard thing for a dedicated Linux. - there are very few, if any, any answers on the Internet about the issues above, I guess because the community of people using WSL2 the way I need is minuscule. The best tactics is to reach the WSL team directly ... and hope they fix some of the issues in the next build. So I fiddled with WSL2 for about a month and ditched it for a regular dual boot with Linux (and didn't boot into Win11 since then)
