Does anyone run Emacs with wsl2? I've noticed that fonts are quite a bit less crisp than they could be. On the left is running Emacs on a native terminal, on the right is the gui application. (alien.top)

I had this issue, then compiled emacs --with-pgtk and fonts became way better.

However, recently, wsl2 was updated in my win11 and out of curiosity I had recompiled emacs without pgtk and fonts are actually crisp and look the same as --with-pgtk.

I am staying with X due to better clipboard support, though, ugly white borders are something you have to "embrace" :)
