    Discontinued Package manager for Chrome OS [Moved to: https://github.com/chromebrew/chromebrew] (by skycocker)

    Chrome OS itself is pretty much capable of running regular GNU/Linux programs without needing a virtual machine like Crostini, there is even a package manager for it. However like i said Google chooses only using web apps route, Crostini is meant to be only for development purposes and pretty much limited like usb or internal hardware access(like camera) and even the screen sharing itself.
