Does it? Just last night ran wsl with `--list --online`. Is there another way to do it that would show Arch?

I get the following when I use `--list --online`:

    The following is a list of valid distributions that can be installed.
    Install using 'wsl.exe --install <Distro>'.

Ontop of that I also use it as my main distro for WSL2 for a few months (before I used the unofficial one).

Thanks. I see much less. I am on Win10 though, are you on Win11?

I have come homework to do, it seems. I have no idea why I see like 3x less distros.

And huge shame if that comes with Linux 6.12 kernel. I might as well just bump Debian to unstable and work there. ¯\_(ツ)_/¯
