I genuinely hate Docker and this whole wave of containerization that's taken over every facet of software development. Too confused to learn something? Just download the image from Docker Hub, follow the one line of instructions, and then you're set!
Reality: when something goes sideways, and it will, you will have no idea how to triage and troubleshoot it.
Don't be afraid to learn the bare metal...it's nice and cozy in here.
@benpocalypse Yeah, the generalization is really a problem. So much software that just has `docker run foo:bar` as installation instructions, especially in the self-hosted community... the situation is clearly not ideal.
Although, there are a few use cases that actually make sense. Like cross-compiling and testing on that architecture without actually running a full VM, or ensuring reproducible builds by popping up containers. But installing software isn't one of those.
