    Nice review of the historical trajectory of desktop Linux. I was surprised that the article mentioned Homebrew rather than Distrobox. This is the first time I’ve seen Homebrew given as a solution for command-line tools on an image-based desktop.

      It’s probably because Distrobox only moves the distribution dependencies problem, while Homebrew handle dependencies itself. Homebrew is also the preferred way to install CLI packages on Universal Blue
