Hello and thank you for taking the time to help other entrepreneurs. I am working on creating a new cross-platform premier Linux distribution that uses containers as the core init process. The goal is automatic cross-compilation between multiple targets and using the built-in kernel sandboxing for applications instead of what XDG App and others are trying to do. I'd like to also target a new window manager built on Wayland with eventual Vulkan support. Would love to get some feedback on how to handle the contention that already exists within this space and how to get the funding I need to make something like this successful.
That sounds like a lot of stuff to take on for a first product. Because existing players already have long feature lists, you can't compete at first by having a longer list. It'd be better to start with one single, simple, useful thing and expand from there.
Cross-platform is interesting. Are there large installations that need to migrate between Intel and ARM boxes seamlessly? That's the sort of feature that might make someone switch distros.
