Running WSL vs Running Linux
WindTerm is pretty nice, open source, and cross platform - however, development on it looks to have definitely slowed down.

Use gow, and WindTerm; and if you want an even better experience install lsd, fd, and lf all of which are downloadable via Chocolatey, the Windows package manager

It absolutely 100% can be true.
As an example: Windows Services for Linux 2 used a special init daemon to interact with the host OS.
That meant no systemd. That meant that the `systemctl` program wasn't there.
This baffled legions, armies, of wannabe sysadmins.

People on the whole have no idea how this stuff works, and they just copy magic incantations from StackOverflow to get stuff to happen. If that doesn't work, then this OS is broken. The end.
For these guys, WSL was broken.

He "fixed" it. Systemd now works in WSL2. All those guides for noobs now work. Everyone is happy.
In a world where tools like Flatpak and Snap are proliferating and it's driving deep divisions between Linux distros, if you think the average person struggling with Linux is going to use `ldd` to work out where the dependencies for something live, I'm afraid you are a deep guru who lives on a different plane of existence.
We now have widely-used packaging systems which simply embed an apps entire dependency tree into a package to avoid people having to work out the difference between `apt` and `rpm`. Thousands of terabytes of disk are being burned to make this stuff go away.
Yes, this is too hard. Way too hard.

Broadcom to Cut Almost 1,300 VMware Jobs in California After Takeover
Seems to more of a Defender issue than a WSL one, see https://github.com/microsoft/WSL/issues/8995
After adding exclusions for the fsnotifier-wsl process and and both variants of the WSL distro path my disk performance was improved.
Adding the idea64.exe process also helped since I was trying to run IntelliJ against projects inside WSL.
