Sad to see Linux turning into a web app. I thought they'd be smart enough to avoid this sort of trend. Hope they continue to support the desktop version.

  Unless Linus himself is behind this project, I don't think you have anything to worry about.

    Who is going to take Linus' place were something happen to him (hopefully not!), or is it going to be chaos?

      I think there's enough interest in Linux desktop that it'll be maintained for a long time yet, even if a web version somehow takes off.

      This is great in comparison to nothing at all, but honestly it’s quite slow since it emulates a different architecture.

        If you’re interested, a-Shell hits a different part of the tradeoff curve where it can run at native speeds and has most of the important built in utilities like ssh, but it’s hard to install additional native software because of iOS restrictions (though python stuff are ok)

  Linux was just an electron app this whole time anyway.
