So you've just basically reimplemented LXC?

Nope. This is a VM, with containers inside. And the containers weren't "re-implemented", it uses existing systemd containers. That's what I was able to learn by skimming the site for 30 seconds. Did you not even do that? And why even be so condescending to someone else's project?

Because it does seem like we already have tools that skin this particular cat, it's valid to wonder what value this project provides over existing solutions.. even if they chose the wrong example to compare it to. Why do you think that's condescending?

		The condescending way the comment was written...

LXC is a jail and qemu is an extra layer of emulation. Why pay that extra cost? Just because it serves a wsl image isn't really an answer. How is that worth the extra layer?

EDIT to not be a dick about it: I think the key detail here is the difference in isolation between containers and VMs, and where emulation comes in.

Just a reminder that the Hacker News community generally frowns on caustic dialog. Let's make sure this place doesn't turn into slashdot. :-)

		Agreed. Edited. I do feel like I was just following the existing tone set by OP, but no excuse.
