The future of Docker containers is a slow death now that there are better container solutions that provide more benefits and less bloat. Docker had great engineers and developers, but terrible management.
- arpa 7y agoI would love to read more about these solutions and their benefits over Docker!
- techntoke 7y agoPodman is one I am thinking of primarily, with the biggest benefit being first-class rootless integration: https://opensource.com/article/19/2/how-does-rootless-podman-work https://opensource.com/article/19/2/how-does-rootless-podman...
- zaphirplane 7y agoFor the majority of people and companies containers == docker. Mostly wrapped by something k8s or one of the cloud container or running locally on your pc/laptop . Yeah some people are using rkt some are using lxc but that’s the absolute fringe minority (no disrespect intended)
- naavis 7y agoBetter solutions such as?

- kamane 7y agoWhat are current overall better container solutions than Docker now, which are adopted in companies worldwide?
- techntoke 7y agoPodman for Docker-specific, and cri-o for K8S.
- jjeaff 7y agoKind of like how Dropbox doesn't stand a chance because rsync or some of the various competitors that are cheaper and better? The past is strewn with dead technology that was superior in every way to the status quo. But adoption and network effect is very powerful. Just look at all the superior alternatives to Facebook that have come and gone.
- techntoke 7y agoNot at all. There are some great alternatives to Dropbox though, including Google Drive, Syncthing and Nextcloud.
