For example FS support often asks if someone tried to reproduce their issue on the official viewer. To test if it's a problem specific to Firestorm or a generic one.
Speaking about docker or WSL2 in general, both are not made for GUI application. And while\ you could do something by using a remote display, performance won't be something you have fun with. If the viewer starts at all and can use that display. Cheers, Nicky
