There are other benefits to me and I'm not missing anything by moving to WSL. VirtualBox still works if I need to access something off my old VMs, it's just dog slow for some reason using Hyper-V on my system. I haven't needed to restart docker after booting WSL. Maybe I will, but hasn't happened yet. The WSL vm feels much more performant to me. It supports dynamic memory allocation and in the new 2.0 release I believe it can free memory. This is really nice in general but particularly on laptops with less RAM. Resource sharing seems.. Just easier. I like the default drive and network sharing. Both seem to work fast and I don't have to do anything with them.. I can still run multiple VMs if I need to with Hyper-V. There is a level of integration that is pretty nice. I like typing "code ." in the WSL term and having it just launch VSCode in Windows and be connected. The WSLg system seems really nice for any software I might run that doesn't support remote hosts. For me, it's all upsides and no real downsides to just running WSL.
