Yes. On my Surface Go 2, WSL2 got me 99% of the way there, but having to forward my ADB port (for KaiOS dev) and then other issues (unresponsive X apps on resume) led me to install Arch and then wipe Windows.

More specifically: i3 helps me make better use of my limited 10.5" screen AND my limited RAM & CPU. Plus, 'composing' my own desktop environment has advantages: with the help of i3's wonderful docs, customizing things to fit me is easy: foreign city's time next to local? Done. A custom brightness command whose intervals I can adjust? Check.

I loved WSL2 until I discovered the speed of my Arch + i3 install.
