I really wish we could get back to true platform-agnostic development and away from shipping whole Linux-jungles containing the banana you actually want to ship. Effective hard-coupling isn’t a good thing isn’t my opinion, even when the platform being coupled to is FOSS.
Agreed. Instead of solving "It runs on my machine" we just decided to ship the machine as part of the app and call it a day.
