WSLv2 (which you need for Docker) is a VM. Windows just manages it for you.



Seen Podman Desktop, can replace Docker licenses.


I was playing with Docker Desktop and Podman Desktop for the first time yesterday. Podman Desktop looks really good. I was impressed with how well it integrated with the docker engine I already had running, and it even had at least one feature I couldn't find in Docker Desktop (pulling an image from the GUI).


Unfortunately last time I tried it on Windows it doesn't integrate with the existing wsl Linux distributions the same way docker desktop does.
