Have a look at https://distrobox.it/. It allows you to tightly integrate containers into your desktop, including accelerated graphics, some devices, your homedir, etc. It can even automatically install desktop shortcuts. (You can disable the integrations of course)

Furthermore, distrobox allows you to define the list of packages to be installed, see:

https://github.com/89luca89/distrobox/blob/main/docs/usage/distrobox-assemble.md

Or new possibilities... See: UV, pixi, hatch, ruff, polar, pyarrow, pydantic, data fusion, deltalake, fastuuid, granian, Robyn...

I'm not a c expert and I'm not comfortable in writing python extensions in C...

But with rust you have the compiler that, if you constraint yourself to the safe part of the rust language, is checking for you for several stupid issues. In rust, I can focus on fixing logical and other implementation errors. Coming from python I feel much more at home with rust (async, yield, iterator, generator, closure, match, walrus, etc) than with C.

Secondo voi è corretto presumere che chiunque stia usando i servizi m365 in europa, non stia rispettando la gdpr?

I believe the question is missing somehow the main points... even if the switch cost the double or triple there are several strategic advantages that should take into account:

• use Linux allow to growth the number of high specialized professional workers, investing on local resources;
• invest in a local network of specialized companies, instead of financing the silicon valley with ours public money;
• be less dependent by abroad technologies, get a major control of the system used;

These are few that come to my mind...

What would be really interesting to know is the percentage of the investment that stay in the region/country following a linux-based/opensource IT infrastructure for public bodies vs the current closed M$|OSX paradigm.

and Redox the work that these guys are doing is awesome! 🤩
