VSCode and Devcontainers work iff you want to use VSCode. Using Silverblue or Bluefin without toolbox or distrobox is setting yourself up for failure, because otherwise one will try to install everything through rpm-ostree and then complain that ostree is slow and stupid.

I don't see how one might struggle with learning how to use distrobox. Of course there's some learning curve, but if one wants a normal Linux they might as well use stock Fedora. All one needs is to create a terminal profile that launches `distrobox enter container`.

(I used to use bluefin until recently, when a regression on distrobox forced me back on Silverblue. I could not for the life of me force rpm-ostree to downgrade distrobox to 1.5.0 vs the 1.6.0 bluefin ships with; I reckon it's because bluefin is a container rather than an ostree commit, and downgrading packages is still unsupported)
