I've tried for ~1 year to like and use WSL2 on a daily basis (on two different systems none the less) because I already use Windows for other stuff, so might as well try it. But they make it really hard to rely on. From random shutdowns, GPU unreliability to data corruption and performance differences with just using Linux directly, I had to move away from it and back to Linux because I felt like I slowly losing my mind troubleshooting these issues. Latest issue was that the virtual disk file continued to grow beyond 500GB large while Linux still reported that it was just 20% full from the inside. So, reading about things, I gave optimize-vhd a try and boom, full disk file was corrupted. So, gave it a try, hit a bunch of issues, left and not planning to touch it again until WSL3, and I'll be much more cautious then.
