Download More RAM (For Real)

2•Rounak2002•3w ago
It’s 2026, and the “Download More RAM” meme has evolved from comedy into product feedback. Meanwhile, the cloud’s default answer to everything is still: “cool, spin up a VM.”

Which is… fine, if you enjoy:

-renting an entire computer to open one app

-becoming the temporary parent of that VM

-installing dependencies you didn’t ask for

-and paying for idle time while you go touch grass.

For most people, the “VM abstraction” feels like renting a whole house because you needed a desk for two hours. With plumbing. And a landlord. And a surprise security deposit.

So we built Infinity (projectx.cloud) with a different idea:

Don’t stream a whole machine. Stream the apps. What Infinity does

Infinity treats the browser as the OS. You click an app and it starts as its own isolated session (containerized) and streams into your browser.

The key part: you can run multiple apps at once, and each app runs independently with its own resources (CPU/GPU/RAM allocation), but they all share a single persistent workspace (shared storage), so your files just… exist where you expect them to.

It’s like “Netflix for software” The workflow is like:

-Open browser

-Go to https://www.infinity.projectx.cloud

-Click on one/multiple apps

-Get your work done, save your files

-Close tab, login from any other device later and start where you left off

What’s different vs VMs/VDI:

-Per-app sessions, not one big desktop VM: You don’t boot “a computer.” You launch Photoshop/Blender/VS Code/whatever as a session.

-Multi-app, actually multi-app: Run multiple apps simultaneously. Each one is isolated and independently resourced, not “everything trapped inside one remote desktop.”

-Shared workspace: All those app sessions mount the same persistent workspace so you can move between tools without file gymnastics.

-Less babysitting: No provisioning, no “which image did I use,” no “why is CUDA angry today,” fewer rituals.

We’re trying to make “high-performance computing” feel less like infrastructure cosplay and more like: click thing, do work, leave.

Would love feedback from people who’ve fought VDI/cloud workstations/dev environments in the trenches:

-Is multi-app + per-app isolation + shared workspace the right abstraction?

-Where will this blow up first (latency, licensing, GPU scheduling, enterprise security, weird peripherals)?

-If you were building this, what would you cut / change?

We just finished up our MVP, and will start giving access to a few people by next weekend, the waitlist is open at https://www.projectx.cloud/
