Topics include enabling WSL and Virtual Machine Platform via PowerShell, prerequisites like BIOS virtualization, and using WSL for running Linux applications such as Ollama for local large language models. Users explore trade-offs between native Windows apps and WSL for GPU performance and developer workflows. The tag focuses on practical setup steps, system requirements, and performance considerations for WSL environments.
Ollama running on Windows 11 is a near-effortless way to host local large language models, and for most users the native Windows app is the fastest path from download to chat — but for developers, researchers, and GPU tinkerers, installing the Linux build inside WSL (Windows Subsystem for Linux)...
