    "Cloud native" technology is double speak for your shit is running on other people's computers who will be tracking your use and selling it to pay for server upkeep and also maybe profit?

      In this case it's referring to the fact that the OS is built upon the same containerization technology used on cloud platforms such as Kubernetes. As a marketing tool it's a bit buzzwordy, but it's not about running the core OS components outside of the physical machine here.

        'Containerized' would be more accurate.

        Both are incredibly stupid attempts to convince people they need something they don't.

        You all should look into a 'blue ocean' business strategy. Lots of shitty businessmen are constantly trying to push 'new' things and have a vested interest in convincing laymen of their necessity.

        Needs are born from solving problems, not making them.
