As an alternative I’ve had great experiences so far with GitHub’s Codespaces.

I couldn’t see myself going back to just running everything outside of at least some containerised environment at a minimum even if not fully remote.

I do a bunch of front end web stuff as well and now the thought of just running npm on my local machine gives me the chills. It’s akin to attending an orgy without a condom :)

Let’s just download thousand of pieces of random unaudited code that has some level of updates almost daily from people I’ve never met before and run it on my machine using an account which also probably has root access and where that same code can access any part of my filesystem and has zero meaningful restrictions on what it does with it… yes it is.
