    Are what point do they stop pretending and just make it a pure linux platform with a different packaging format for any linux app to run in? They are doing it with CROS (or whatever the new Chrome on Linux OS is being called) and maybe it’s time to do it with Android. Running a VM just seems quite wasteful.

      Desktop Linux has nearly no app security. So the VM approach is a malware prevention. Android is the most used OS in the world.

            You cam teach it expected behaviour of apps…but for .folders I would say that falls under SELinux, which seems to have a learning curve to it
