not a problem if you don't cross them - my wsl2 disk image took more space than the windows install. I basically used windows as a web/email/chat client and a terminal to the real system, which was wsl2.



Bad integration is a problem with integration even if you personally do no integration


To each their own. I consider it great at what it does. It has limitations but what doesn’t? It’s a tool, use it, or don’t - I use it, it works for me.


Good for you, but also irrelevant to the argument


Absolutely not - the integration is perfectly fine, for me.


it's not the integration that is perfectly fine for you, but the lack thereof since you simply don't use it


I use the \\wsl$\ to get an occasional file out of wsl2 super easily, vscode remote wsl, the shared localhost interface and a wsl2 gui app every once in a blue moon. Don't think it's nothing.

What I don't use: files on the windows fs from wsl2 for continuously or vice versa.

Exactly, your "occasionally and once in a blue moon" is close to nothing (but I agree, it's not nothing)
