       | This looks really cool, even if I don't have a game in mind that

       | First of all, thanks rolph ;)
       | 
       | qwantify is a work in progress. As many have pointed out, it is
       | not that different from it's parent repo Neko because this was
       | essentially an MVP. I am working on a set of features including
       | gamepad support and livestream-on-QUIC.
       | 
       | What people might be getting wrong is that qwantify meant to
       | compete with Parsec or Sunshine.
       | 
       | qwantify is a docker image for running and streaming multiple
       | apps or games together from a single machine with at least one
       | gpu. All this can be accessed through the browser.
       | 
       | What (i think) cloud gaming companies like Nvidia or xCloud do.
       | 
       | Be sure to keep an eye out for v1.

       | Wow seems pretty impressive, albeit pretty niche. I think the
       | name could here's some work shopping though. I don't think it's
       | very descriptive.

       | Looks like more of a work in progress. Its still doesn't support
       | GPUs as its says in the README and neither gamepads.
       | 
       | Still pretty cool project, gonna keep an eye on it for sure, for
       | now on Linux its best to just use Steam remote play.

       | Wow, fantastic project at first glance. Really looking forward to
       | trying this out since I was about to update my gaming rig, so it
       | is perfect timing to test this as an alternative.
       | 
       | Curious if this opens up cross-platform potential since it is
       | browser based, that would be a game changer if so.

         | Hi, thank you for taking an interest.
         | 
         | It is 'cross-platform' as long as you have docker installed and
         | configured to use your gpus. You are good to go.
         | 
         | qwantify is still young and unstable to promise you, you will
         | get a first good experience. But do tell how it goes :)

       | Fork of neko; differences can be seen here:

       | Commit messages seem like a bit of a mess at first glance, but
       | otherwise seems like a really cool project!
