distrobox is not a vm

Let’s agree to disagree. I think it’s the single best thing to come to the desktop in the last decade and using containers as build environments has made my workflow immensely better.

Our documentation guy cooked so hard he got burnt out, please read them they’re excellent.

Legitimately if you’re a programmer and you think using a container is a pain in the ass, you should stop programming.

Source: 20 plus years software engineer, if I didn’t have containers I would go ahead and hurry along my retirement.

Bro I’m the lead developer and I’m just now seeing this, just accept you called the viral marketing wrong.

We’ve grown to the point that when I market something, I tell people not to listen to me because I’m biased.

Bazzite founder here, We actually ship with no X11 session installed. This change was made when we rebased on Fedora 41.

You can of course install one, but it’s our policy that if you open an issue while using X11 we ask you to try again on Wayland, and if it doesn’t happen there your issue is getting closed.

When proton rebases on the latest wine we will be very close to being in a position where we can just remove all xWayland packages, I suspect that will happen in the next few years.

I’m not sure how you’ve decided the term is vague but it doesn’t matter, it’s a decade old term with an entire foundation built around it that’s part of the Linux Foundation.

You should tell them it’s vague. The truth is users with your opinion are not a growth target, I’ve dealt with maybe three of you in over 9 million downloads.

We are averaging 400TB/mo in ISOs and it’s increasing. If lay-users are turning away in numbers greater than random noise I’m not seeing it. If Linux users who argue about definitions of already defined words on Lemmy are – that’s not a growth target.

I got to buzzword and then I gave up reading. I’m going to go ahead and continue to double down on it until I don’t see comments like this.

Multiple definitions have been provided, there is an entire cloud native computing foundation of which members of it are part of Universal Blue, and it’s an incredibly common thing in any professional paid Linux job. I understand a small subset of users (Most of which are going to be Windows Gamers) might think cloud native means it’s running in the cloud, but the website quite literally links to something that says that’s not the case, and I’m okay suffering a few people not getting it.

Part of the stated goal is to push forward cloud native and this model for the Linux desktop. If people want to learn about it there are resources available to do so.

No

Founder here, the more I see this whining the more I want to keep it on the website.

It’s the accurate definition.

Hey there, I’m the founder of Bazzite. Just wanted to confirm that we have no interest in VC funding. It says it’s cloud native because it’s cloud native, not because we’re marketing to people with too much money and a lack of sense.
