Christopher Patti (Jun 10 2025 at 14:07):I wish you folks had asked questions around WSLg - the fact that you can run Wayland apps that use graphics and sound on WSL is mind boggling and super cool under the hood :slight_smile:
Jerod Santo (Jun 10 2025 at 14:48):I plead utter ignorance of even the existence of WSLg :laughing:

It's worth playing with! You can run many apps that use Wayland graphics and sound and they work great! Kind of another super power most people haven't played with yet. They're probably not pushing it SUPER hard because there are some edge cases that aren't covered. Like, if you use Audacity for editing, you might still want the native Windows version for several reasons, but the Linux one works which is kind of amazing!
