> Ubuntu which is only around 40mb […] I just downloaded Ubuntu 18.04 and 19.04 and they are not 40MB: $ docker image ls | grep ubuntu ubuntu 19.04 f723e3b6f1bd 76.4MB ubuntu 18.04 d131e0fa2585 102.0MB ubuntu 16.04 a51debf7e1eb 116.0MB How do you get a 40MB Ubuntu Docker image? --- I followed @sofaofthedamned — https://blog.ubuntu.com/2018/07/09/minimal-ubuntu-released https://blog.ubuntu.com/2018/07/09/minimal-ubuntu-released But I’m still confused, where are they getting 29MB from?
