What is your favorite desktop environment?
At the risk of being downvoted to hell, but to offer a different perspective, my answer is, that my favorite DE for Linux (not only Fedora) is... Windows with WSL(g). I'm a huge Fedora fan, have installed it bare-metal, but use fedoraremix WSL distro almost exclusively. The problem with that solution is that it requires an absurdly huge amount of memory to work comfortably, so I admit, that it is not a good solution for any system with less than 32GB of RAM.

Podman v4.2.0 Released
BTW. I'm not using Ubuntu WSL, and I'm on fedoraremix instead - you can install it for free from https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/Fedora-Remix-for-WSL/releases. As of now it installs Fedora 35, but you can upgrade it to 36 and there you have podman 4.2.0 available for install. Maybe it would solve some of your issues?

Podman 4.2.0
[2]: https://github.com/WhitewaterFoundry/Fedora-Remix-for-WSL
Disclaimer. I am not using Windows to test above solutions anymore. More than a year ago I used [2] but from a casual look maybe [1] is better now.

I haven't tried it, but https://github.com/wslutilities/wslu has a feature that lets you create a shortcut on your desktop from WSL. Not sure if it's what you're looking for

Emacs script to launch WSL2 emacs directly from windows bar (hope usefull for someone)
WSL already has this feature built in, via wslu. The ubuntu image has it pre-installed, but other images don't.
What are some alternatives?

wsldl - Advanced WSL launcher / installer. (Win10 FCU x64/arm64 or later.)
fvim - Cross platform Neovim front-end UI, built with F# + Avalonia
