Ever since I discovered OrbStack, my M1 has become the perfect laptop for me. OrbStack has great UX, massive FS performance, Docker & Kubernetes support, and a bunch of really clever people behind it. Everyone doing linux development on a Mac should try it
- asadalt 1y agooh wow. i hadn’t hesrd if orbstack. i am sick of docker issues on my og m1.
- corv 1y agoIt's really good but the fs caching has bit me a couple times before I realized what was going on.
- oulipo 1y agoCan you tell more about this?
- oulipo 1y agoOrbstack is great! I'm wondering why there is not an open-source equivalent? Did they have to reimplement a lot of the native calls to make it work fast enough?
- eddyg 1y agoWhat are the real-world benefits over Colima?⁽¹⁾ (Besides having a GUI, which I can do without.) I'm interested in an up-to-date comparison when running the VM with Rosetta 2: colima start --vm-type=vz --vz-rosetta ⁽¹⁾ https://github.com/abiosoft/colima https://github.com/abiosoft/colima Edit to add: While researching OrbStack, I found this comment in a post from 7 months ago that mirrors a lot about my experience with Colima: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41424044 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=41424044
- rcarmo 1y agoI use Colima as well. Haven’t found anything that works better, TBH.
