For once I think I agree with Linux purists.
Fuck I might need a shower.

What if... WSL is a gateway drug to Arch?
Don't do drugs, kids!
Windows users when they see a wine user???
I'm glad wsl exists so I don't have to bother with windows and people can still run my programs.

Uh acktually I'm a Kali user
-Uses Kali WSL port
Kali user
found the problem
WSL is just a chroot running under Windows.
Why not just use both?
Aww, cry harder.
I started using Linux when it was Redhat, in the 1990s, and it came on a bunch of CDs.
And I use WSL in addition to Debian, Raspbian, and Ubuntu.
Knock this tribal bullshit off.
CDβs?! Ooh La La Mister Fancy French man with the digital media! Back in our day linux came on a plastic 45 inside Fruity Pebbles cereal and it had loose crusty sugar in the grooves that introduced errors in X that meant the screen scrolled like an out-of-whack tv and you had to wait for the prompt to roll by so you could try another resolution that would core dump and spit you back to the A:\ drive and eject the disc into your shins like a frisbee! And thatβs the way we liked it!

Itβs so true though
I even look at myself that way whenever I use wsl on my gaming box to hop onto another system. I disgust myself.
