You are getting down voted but you are right. But if companies making software would support Linux natively this would make a huge difference too and that is not the case now

What I do is use distrobox or any devpod and install it in the container and launch from cli. Works perfectly for me.

Would you mind explaining novodb to me? As a developer how do I use it in my app? Is there an SDK you’re supposed to use or can you just query the database directly?
