For many services that was solved even earlier: that's why things like Docker, podman and VMs are so popular.
The hard bit is the desktop experience which is not fully there yet, but the technology is.
- cosmic_cheese 8mo agoDocker style containerization technically works, but for desktop use I think is a rather heavy kludge and not really a solution. It would be much more nice if e.g. daemons could have their privileges pared down to only exactly what they need to function and nothing more with a config file somewhere. This can somewhat be achieved with the user system, but that really doesn’t scale well and doesn’t suit the purpose all that well in some ways.
