agree. I don’t understand why we are not there yet. I'm mostly an app developer but sometimes I ask a backender "are we unikernel yet?" And they just look at me like I'm speaking alien to them.

Because then you'd need to make literally everything you use support the unikernel. Containers, and VMs running Linux, are nice because everything already works on Linux. Also, I don't see what you would actually gain. Like what layer is actually being removed here?
The userland. It’s mostly bloatware in the age of containers
