What happened to Orbstack for like 9 months until earlier this year? Suddenly everything went silent for a bit and I was pretty concerned. Glad y’all are back!!!!
Thank you for sharing this - I looked into OrbStack a few months ago, and this was the reason I didn't use it (as my primary purpose was to have an external wifi adapter for wifi pwnage).
Yeah I find this useful for redirecting storage/sdcard*, so you can format linux filesystems or use other tools.

* need a usb sdcard reader for macbook pro cause the builtin is not usb)

We're working on block device passthrough for the builtin SD reader.
