Here's a take: I don't want Stadia; I want a modern and personal Sunray. I've described a computing model called PAO [1] on my blog that is Sunray-like in that you connect to your own personal computing environment from all devices concurrently. Singular instances of your applications are merely viewed on all of your devices, using view adaptation similar to today's responsive web apps (and Microsoft's UWP desktop app model).
The key differences from Stadia:
1. PAO would not be just for games but for all computing.
2. PAO would not be centralized by default, but broadly deployable, making it something you could self-host on a compute node anywhere (e.g., in your home with a static IP and VPN). PAO would work especially well with a network abstraction layer like ZeroTier, allowing all of your devices to coexist in a private virtual network. You could of course pay a service provider to host your compute node, but that would be one option among many.
3. PAO would expect multiple concurrent clients to applications. A single email app would exist and service views on your home laptop, work desktop, and mobile phone concurrently.
