Damn, I did not know you need a VM for Docker on macOS. That's kind of ironic, isn't it XD

Every day I wake up and thank the universe for MS making WSL2

WSL2 is also a virtual machine.

WSL2 is also a VM. docker relies on the linux kernel apis, so it must be ran inside a linux VM on macos or windows

I’d rather run real Linux in a VM than a buggy appropriation of it in WSL

Isn’t WSL2 vm based?
