I scrolled through and it just seems like yet another contaienr runtime.
Anhone want to convince me this isn't just slopware?

Seems to be specifically a desktop containers runtime for Mac written in Rust. It uses Nftables for networking on linux, too, unlike docker which is really nice.
Looking at the codebase this is either not majorly AI generated or the spent a lot of time cleaning up the tells I recognize, so I'd say not slop.

Not sure, but the documentation is wrong. It’s not a (micro)VM per container. So it’s basically an Orbstack clone.

Sure looks like it. Not sure any of the contributors on GH are even real people.

My question, not clear from the front page, was if it runs faster on MacOS than colima with vz. Full benchmarks claim that it does.
So that's interesting. The offering of container runtimes (also thin VMs in general) on MacOS has been improving a lot.
