I scrolled through and it just seems like yet another contaienr runtime.

Anhone want to convince me this isn't just slopware?

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

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.

almost 200K lines of code materialized in about 2 weeks, and the code is full of em-dashes. if this wasn't vibecoded, they sure tried their hardest to make it look like it was...

> 200K lines of code

And who is going to read all that to make sure it doesn't contain malware?

I'm extremely loath these days to casually clone any repos from untrusted sources.

		If you have enough tokens, a LLM will happily read every line. That’s how we are all getting inundated with bug reports now.

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