Interesting! I'd swear that in the early days of OrbStack somewhere on their website I've read they're using native MacOS frameworks without the need of Linux VM, but I can't find that anymore (they don't mention Linux VM either, but the language still differs from what I remember).

They do use native GUI frameworks rather than something like Electron, which they still mention. And maybe they also used to have something about relying on Apple's Virtualization Framework or something like that, rather than qemu as Lima used for a long time. (I think it may still be Lima's default, but not for long.)
