What is the value proposition here? Why would somebody use this over... the computer their using to access your fake in-browser computer?


It unifies the Operating System with the cloud. Your local storage becomes irrelevant while at the same time you have full durability and portability of your environment on any device in the world.


Thank you so much! I couldn't have said it better myself :)


I think you should add a web browser and then it can work like a VPN too.


I think more to the point, why would someone use this as opposed to a remote-desktop service from an established company like Amazon, Microsoft, Google, ...


This isn’t a Remote Desktop. This is a cloud file system which loads your files and js apps on the front end in a way that it looks like a remote desktop


Pretty much the same as chrome os i guess?


But then in “userland”..

So you could use it on a chromebook as well.

I like the idea, and as PG often says the best ideas often sound crazy at first.

Glad someone other than me is trying I guess :-)


replit.com competitor, where user don't have to learn any UI?
