@emilis @a1ba @rq The #QubesOS documentation (https://www.qubes-os.org/faq/#is-qubes-a-multi-user-system) and #ArcanFE project (https://www.divergent-desktop.org/blog/2020/08/10/principles-overview/#p7, https://arcan-fe.com/about/) both have well-written longer explanation on just why (although getting the full picture does require some rabbit-hole diving).

Other than #Arcan / #ArcanFE, is there any other #OpenSource or #FreeSoftware project that still even attempts to support merging the display of multiple clustered computers?

#Cluster #Clustering #Display #Networking

@craigmaloney @cwebber In a similar vein, if networking isn't a problem, #Xpra might be a usable compromise.

It doesn't solve any of the monitor issue though, of course.

But #Barrier (https://github.com/debauchee/barrier) might.

Unfortunately clustering computers like #OpenVMS or #Plan9 and supporting remote display has fallen to the wayside. The closest thing I know, #ArcanFE is still WIP.

Gosh, this #arcanfe thing looks cool. Would be neat to mix this with #Guix . Run different isolated environments in windows that can talk only through certain channels.
