From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

I might try run0 for fun, but I don't think it'll replace sudo any time soon.
The biggest issue I see is run0 purposely not copying any environment variables except for
TERM
.You'd have to specify which editor to use, the current directory, stuff like
PATH
andHOME
every time you run a command.You can't really install packages or modify configs on the host without root. Containers can only do some parts.
