| adamcstephens | 🤨 | 15:26:17 |
| adamcstephens | https://orbstack.dev/ | 15:26:59 |
| adamcstephens | I wondered where the support for all these distros was coming from, but it appears that they're LXC containers running inside orb's VM? https://docs.orbstack.dev/machines/distros | 15:33:57 |
| adamcstephens | implying that orb itself is running incus or lxd? | 15:34:16 |
| adamcstephens | Probably the former, given the licensing | 15:34:34 |
 Cobalt | An interesting business model, if accurate. Maybe that's a good thing for long term incus support, if orb contributes back | 15:43:52 |
| adamcstephens | I haven't figured out how to get into their VM itself | 17:27:28 |

| adamcstephens | how's our linstor support? 😉 | 18:43:40 |
| adamcstephens | Nonexistent | 18:58:07 |

| Cobalt | It looks like linstor should at least be reasonable to build, their Dockerfile etc. looks okay-ish. There is no related package request though (#370315 is only a CLI for kubernetes), so maybe this can be skipped unless requested. I would also be surprised if anyone would use this over Ceph until it has matured. | 11:34:22 |
| adamcstephens | Yeah I wasn’t planning on adding linstor support any time soon | 12:31:01 |
