Yeah I've literally got Docker desktop running in the background with multiple containers running seamlessly on my M1 max. I think he's just looking for a place to vent.


You're saying it like you're the only one running docker.

I use it daily too and it sucks. Containers needs rebooting a few times a day or the changes I make in the code won't work. Then there's the massive ram consumption. Emulated crap.

Sorry if I hurt you feelings.


> Emulated crap.

Docker is virtualisation, not emulation.


Yes, which is worse.

Slower and more RAM hungry.


No you've got it the wrong way around - virtualisation is lightweight - it's got very good hardware support - emulation is CPU and memory hungry - it's done in software.
