One year ago this month as I told my friends I'd give the Linux desktop one year before succumbing to the inevitability of OSX. This setup is the culmination of my research. I call it the cloud native desktop. Find me for a demo.
All the properties of cloud native at your fingertips. K8s without the VM layer, a container runtime at the core of every operation. Any distro userspace to devel with right at your fingertips. Clean separation of the system from the user space, all atomic operations.
It's not a distro, it's a tenet of ideas. What a client laptop would look like if we started without any of the baggage of the old world. This janky prototype is already more reliable than any you can get from any Linux vendor today. Period.
I'm looking for volunteers to help push these tenets forward -- like a real time lab that Fedora and openSUSE can use to build what cloud native developers need to drive the industry forward. Oh, yeah, and it plays Halo.
You can find me at #KubeCon at the expo floor and at #Rejekts2022 and if you're in the OS space I will come find you at some point.
And here are the markers I am using to determine which distributions are willing to fix the fundamental problems with Linux on the client:
