The Kali-linux distro after installing the kali-win-kex package is the best looking distro for WSLg. The file explorer Thunar looks great in dark mode.

The Ubuntu on Windows Community Preview distro is the most updated and is the best to try new things with WSLg since it has mesa GPU acceleration enabled by default.

Wayland looks better and "feels" faster. Try opening latest nightly from firefox in Wayland (MOZ_ENABLE_WAYLAND=1 ./firefox) and you will notice the difference. But it's still a work in progress and X11 is way more mature.
