I bought it. ($6.99 is a ridiculously low price for this kind of thing.)
Awesome. now install TurboC++ and start creating. 
I graduated from C++ years ago 
“The C++ language combines all the power of assembly language with all the ease-of-use of assembly language and adds copy construtors.” (To misquote a quote attibuted to various people)

Last week I built iDOS 2 using Xcode and ran a program I created using Turbo Pascal more than a decade ago.
Weird to see that on an iPad…

I was hoping I could run fMSX, an MSX emulator with a DOS port, in iDOS 2, to play MSX games on my iPad…
That (MSX) emulator did actually run in iDOS (an emulator itself), but unfortunately too slow to play games.

It has its uses. For example, you can use it to implement an actually good language with

I know what it is, I participated in the TestFlight. I just don’t see the point. I think, if you like Linux, you’re better off with a Pi.
My Pi taped to my iPhone looks funny.

Honestly the ability to run youtube-dl and ffmpeg alone is worth the effort already.
It’s not about performance. It’s about extending the possibilities of ios/ipados.
In your logic, virtual machines are all useless.

iSH isn’t a virtual machine. It’s an app, and as such it’s trapped inside a sandbox.
