minus-squareMatt The HorwoodlinkfedilinkEnglish4•10 days agoWhy do you need WSL? MacOS is BSD, so you can do most Linux things with an issue. But some of the BSD tools have different options the the GNU tools. We moved to Mac years ago and it makes doing almost everything I do a simples
minus-squarelime!linkfedilinkEnglish8•10 days agobecause docker. it hard requires a linux kernel and is extremely slow on mac, just like it was on windows until they integrated with wsl.
minus-squareMatt The HorwoodlinkfedilinkEnglish1•10 days agoI see, I don’t use docker all that much on my works Mac. So haven’t noticed the speed. Also is it the storage share that’s slow? As docker desktop is a VM
minus-squarelime!linkfedilinkEnglish5•10 days agowell docker on mac is a fully emulated x86 vm. everything is slow.
minus-squareMatt The HorwoodlinkfedilinkEnglish4•10 days agoLooking at the docs, I think the current docker desktop is native arm. QEMU is now deprecated
minus-squareThe_DecryptorlinkfedilinkEnglish1•10 days agoThat’s only if you’re running an x86 container right? It should be native with an ARM64 one.
minus-squarelime!linkfedilinkEnglish2•10 days agoyeah. last i had a mac there were no arm containers though.
minus-square@HiTekRedNek@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkEnglish6•edit-210 days agoNo. Mac is NOT BSD. Mac took the BSD user space from 20+ years ago. That’s all. I’m not sure why this myth keeps being repeated over and over. If that’s all it takes to “be” BSD, then windows is also BSD since the entire windows network stack was lifted from BSD

WSL for Mac?
Yeah pretty much.
MSL that is.
Why do you need WSL?
MacOS is BSD, so you can do most Linux things with an issue. But some of the BSD tools have different options the the GNU tools.

oh nice!

I wonder if you could run WSL under Wine…
