I’m currently running an instance on Ubuntu but I’m wondering if it can be moved to my windows computer?

    You have Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL) which will allow you to run Ubuntu within Windows.

    Or you have Docker for Windows which also utilises WSL in a similar manner.

    So yes, although not a native Windows exe, it’s perfectly possible.

      something to keep in mind is that both WSL2 and Linux container on Docker Windows use virtual machines
      these come with a drawback of additional overhead or cheaper hosted VPS don’t allow to nest virtual machines inside their cheap ones
