A cross platform solution, which is nice.

  It's not "cross-platform" at all, since Docker builds on Linux containers. For example, the Docker applications for Windows and macOS just run a Linux VM behind the scenes. AFAIK you can't run Windows binaries using Docker, even if you're using Windows, since it's running in a Linux VM; likewise for macOS binaries on macOS, Solaris on Solaris, etc.

    Docker on WSL2 kind-of runs on the host, though.

      WSL1 as far as I understand works like wine, transpiling calls to NT. But isn't WSL2 just a VM?
