I've been using it as my daily dev machine for ~5 years now.

As per the article, the usability tradeoffs are considerable. But the separation of domains into separate VMs is really lovely. If nothing else, having a separate VM per client just feels "right". No intermingling of code and, even more importantly, secrets or credentials or even comms. Being able to use the same physical machine for personal stuff as well as work is also a bonus.
