I agree. I am working on an Arch distro (may roll my own for containers) that includes secure decentralized storage and configuration by default, and a federated marketplace for sharing your own local and server resources.
Haha... right now I have my desktop that I can show, which isn't perfect but I have an idea of where I want to go and how to get there (mostly). I am still running i3 for compatibility, but definitely moving towards Sway.
I've seen some great looking desktops that I still need to mimic, and the make them more fluid/responsive for multiple devices. I would like to review and look at what George Singer is up to:
Seems like he may be offering VR devices for developers that are able to demonstrate some requirements. How cool is that? I would like to take something like Sway, and add or combine it with a project similar to SimularVR, with a Vulkan backend. That is the end goal.
I will likely just start with Sway and build a kick ass plugin and application manager that uses containers. I will re-explore the current application isolation solutions, such as AppImage vs FLatpak vs Snap, but likely try my hand at building my own.
Part of that process is repeatable builds. I would like to build the OS compilation into the decentralization process, and make distributed (and localized) compilation a core component of the crypto solution, as it will later be used for rendering all types of resources on top of something like IPFS and Git.
Ideally, package maintainers will be solely focused on automated builds directly from source repos, so that everything is compiled and versioned automatically, so that you can switch software versions at anytime, with some compatibility-script support for DB and data changes.
Anyway, that is a lot of talk, so I will have to share more when I make more progress. It is a longer term goal, but feel free to help me get started:
For example, you can see a UI kit here that I would like to utilize initially, although I am still inclined to try to implement my own idea here, which involves combining a
