very cool, if you want cross-platform microvms, there's an interesting project called libkrun that powers projects like Podman and Colima.

here's a Go binding: https://github.com/mishushakov/libkrun-go

Since when does libkrun power Podman? Last time I checked, Podman used non-virtualized containers based on `crun`.

(Though you can certainly configure Podman to use krun[0], which fires up a libkrun VM inside a crun container.)

OP may be referring to `podman machine` on macOS, which gives access to containers through a Linux VM via libkrun.
