Thank for the information. I never know kernel on WSL are provided by 
microsoft.

Podman just like docker but no need to give root access to daemon 
(docker) and podman are daemonless. Yes, you are right, I compatible and 
familiar with fedora way. I have bad experience with docker so, I try to 
avoid using it. So I prefer podman.

I use for trial only. Seem (already upgrade to bulleye and install 
podman) much better do it like this, in term of battery usage. I tried 
with linux on vm before but it use lot of battery in background. So I'm 
okey with this setup.
