> container is a tool that you can use to create and run Linux containers as lightweight virtual machines on your Mac. It's written in Swift, and optimized for Apple silicon.
That would have been an impressive piece of technology in 2015, when WSL was theoretical. To release it in 2025 is a very bad trend, and it reflects Apple's isolation from competition and reluctance to officially support basic dev features.
Container does nothing to progress the state of supporting Linux on Apple Silicon. It does not replace macOS, iBoot or the other proprietary, undocumented or opaque software blobs on the system. All it does is keep people using macOS and purchasing Apple products and viewing Apple advertisements.
