That's the entire appeal of WSL (for me). A single source checkout I can work on from both sides; no inconsistency of forgetting that I need to apply changes twice.

Without it, I can just as well ssh into another box.

On my work laptop I made the lazy/naive mistake of mounting my projects from macOS into devcontainers running in Colima.

vscode extensions using ripgrep in parallel in the background (there are many!) are killing the vm.

I now decided to follow Mitchell Hashimoto choice and use VMware Fusion and simply do all my work inside of it.

From the perspective of user empathy, wsl seems to be designed for that use case. but the implementation/defaults can be improved

Source?
