How do you mean? Phone OSes prove the model works, at least for ordinary "productivity apps". Linux kernel features to enforce it exist and are well tested, and are used by Docker and Flatpak. Microsoft implemented the technology, but had trouble getting developers to actually commit to it (which is rational, why choose a harder option if there's no incentive?). And MacOS seems to be doing a good job of balancing increased default restrictions with maintaining escape hatches where needed
- saagarjha 3y agoThere’s a lot of software that doesn’t fit into the phone OS model that people generally find it useful to have available. macOS has tried to bring some of this to the desktop but beyond straight ports of mobile apps their efforts to allow for apps to progressively do more powerful things have largely been failures.
