I'd prefer containers, because they are more light weight and I'm not too concerned about kernel exploits or other sandbox escapes. Configuring a container per project brings me right back to something like devcontainer. But I haven't figured out a good way to incorporate that into my vim/tmux workflow.
Hmm, maybe I misunderstood the point of the original comment. I thought the OP was suggesting using containers to isolate resources for development vs personal computing, for which I use a VM. But VMs don’t play nicely with IDEs (hence devcontainers).
