Show HN: A concept for a productivity OS using LXC for client isolation

Hi HN,

I just published a blog post about an idea I've been developing to solve a workflow problem I face as a developer juggling multiple clients.

The short version is that using full VMs for each client is resource-heavy and clunky (no notifications, hardware issues), but it provides great isolation.

My post outlines a concept for a "productivity-focused" OS inspired by Qubes, but built on lightweight LXC system containers. The goal is to get the strong isolation benefits without the performance overhead, using a custom desktop environment to handle things like unified notifications and managed hardware access.

I'd love to get this community's feedback. I'm particularly interested in your thoughts on these questions:

  1. Does this problem resonate with other freelancers, consultants, or multi-project developers?

  2. Is using LXC the right approach, or is there a better technology for this?

  3. What's a must-have feature for you if a system like this existed?
