Docker and podman aren't too bad nowadays I don't think assuming you're not running something huge
(Podman is another tool that does the same thing as docker)
Docker and podman containers are basically like throwaway mini-vms that contain one application to ensure it will always run no matter where so long as the machine you're running them on can run docker
They can run CLI stuff just fine, I'm not sure about desktop apps someone smarter than me will probably tell you about that
IIRC that's the whole point of flatpak, snap and appimage
Docker can probably do it too, distrobox puts a useful wrapper on that
Nix does that kind of, nix packages aren't isolated in that they can't access resources on your system but all dependencies are stored in the nix store, hashed and isolated from eachother, and wiped when you collect garbage
That kinda thing is a sliding scale for everyone, if my Linux machine wasn't 90% as reliable and usable as when I was on windows I would probably still be using windows
Nothing wrong with swearing in general, but you're using it in a needlessly hostile way
My point is that the arch community in general is very hostile to new and non technical users, I don't think many would disagree
Also, why still use a windows PC? Unless you play valorant, Fortnite etc proton is 99% there imo, haven't had a windows machine in a year or so and I very rarely have any issues
I have two Linux machines with Microsoft edge and teams installed so that's how that's going
Not ready yet. There are a few dev kits but nothing realistically usable as a daily driver yet from what I've gathered
You make a compelling argument why not to use arch in calling windows users dumbfucks and swearing every 3 words in your reply lol
Perfect! Now I can deploy it to my kubernetes cluster and make it scalable!
