I'm pretty sure docker recommends that it runs under WSL when on windows.
Windows itself is technically running in a VM if you have Hyper-V enabled (not quite that simple, but that's a reasonable approximation). Hyper-V is a type 1 hypervisor which means it runs directly on the underlying physical hardware, and both Windows as well as any VMs you create are running on top of Hyper-V.
Oh that's an interesting tidbit, didn't know that
Yeah, docker in a VM makes sense. Docker in docker in a vm in a vm though?
Yep, can confirm
