- Forgive the naivety, but what graphical Linux apps are people trying to run that don’t have native MacOS builds? In my experience, Linux GUIs are generally written in Qt or GTK, both of which are multi-platform.
I don’t doubt that they exist, I’m just struggling to think of a popular example.

- Perfect.. this will allow me to run GUI apps in a container.
I did a similar thing with X11, but I didn't like so much.
Bit by bit, Apple is loosing it's Desktop position. It all starts at the developers. At soon, every person will be a "developer".

- I need something like this for android, termux-x11 is a good start but if termux gets wayland support or there is a way to expose wayland sockets from the android native linux VM, the only thing missing is a native rendering compositor for a smoother experience
- This looks like slop? The README is full of emojis and kind of incoherent, there are no implementation details, there claims to be a Metal backend that doesn't seem to exist, etc.
The dependency list is also...something: https://github.com/J-x-Z/cocoa-way/tree/main/vendor
- Now, if only macOS still had the ability to drop to a Darwin shell without a GUI at all… we could just have a nice UNIX with something like KDE or COSMIC, brew as our package manager… what a dream.
- Wow. Would this allow a macos-based wayland-client to create an EGL surface?

- Very interesting, can this run something like android using waydroid within Orbstack too?
It would then essentially run android on macos as well, I do feel like it should be possible.

- Now if we could switch MacOS to use Win/Linux keyboard commands, MacOS wouldn't be so insufferable

- Wonder if this will bring at least a tiny amount of interest to GNUstep.
- Neat, but wouldn't it be better to have the windows as "seamless"? I.e. not contained within another window.
