What's the trade-off? I'm giving up performance and simplicity (well, what's left of it in a kernel as complex as Linux), for what exactly? To run the same apps I can already run natively? Which apps exactly - TUI apps that can already run over an SSH connection? Electron apps that already run in a browser? Are there any native apps that are worth the effort? Emacs, GIMP, Audacity, Blender, or DaVinci are all cross-platform. Or do you have an idea for an app that would be better off targeting Linux rather than the web, but won't suffer from the performance loss?
The idea is to have your entire work space in one place. Gimp, PDF viewers, IDE (not just VS code), terminal tabs, running docker containers with your application.
Basically just what you would do with some kind of remote desktop. But it's not remote, it runs locally, with perfect latency. And it's easy to switch to another computer with any underlying host OS, without even interrupting your applications (if hibernate idea would work).
