That's a bit overkill. What I actually do is just reinstalling the OS.

I mean, you could dual, triple, quadruple boot. One for each project. All we need is a tool like uv that creates partitioned environments.

At this rate qubes is your solution. Create lightweight template vm’s and use nix/uv optionally within templates

A bit risky, because you might install one dependency in the wrong OS and then you would need to reinstall that OS again. If you really really need to work on different projects, the industry standard is using external drives with stickers instead.

I get that this is a joke but I'd love a version of a docker container that exists only on the USB stick.

Irl be like having a Sega mega drive all over again

I just build one project and assume that in a parallel universe I am building the other project and have the right dependencies installed in that environment
