Is the Podman the solution to user-PID ? #6

Open ParaplegicRacehorse opened 2 years ago

Since Podman starts containers from user-space, it should launch cloudmacs with your user-PID instead of having to do hacky things and expose a root level emacs instance. Since podman-compose is now a thing, you should now have a composable OCI-container in userspace for your emacs in browser.

(note, I have not tried cloudmacs for myself in either docker or podman)

Have you yet tried setting your default editor to xdg-open <container.IP>:<container.port>?
