can't run docker inside wsl2

Also if you want to give installing systemd on a WSL2 distro a try then the easiest and most trouble-free solution to that that I've seen so far is Distrod (I even use it to install new WSL2 distros that have systemd as it pulls the distro rootfs from opencontainers.org) so give that a try as well.

  Use any linux distribution inside your terminal. Enable both backward and forward compatibility with software and freedom to use whatever distribution you’re more comfortable with. Mirror available at: https://gitlab.com/89luca89/distrobox

Yes, you can use Docker, Podman (so DistroBox too), LXC, systemd-nspawn etc (so nsbox.dev too) containers in the WSL2 distros themselves but know that Docker needs systemd vs Podman & LXC can be set to not use systemd's journald etc, hence it runs on bashonubuntuonwindows2 without having to make any modifications to the container for other than editing Podman's containers.conf file (also if you choose to go for podman but want to keep your old habits/scripts of typing docker then there's a podman-docker package in most distros that's just an alias to podman as podman is mostly compatible with docker commands - so yeah RedHat seriously wants to win us over).

  Distrod is a meta-distro for WSL 2 which installs Ubuntu, Arch, Debian, Gentoo, etc. with systemd in a minute for you. Distrod also has built-in auto-start feature on Windows startup and port forwarding ability.
