"Oh no, I have to update my software!"
Are you serious?
- canadianfella 5y agoWhy would you doubt the seriousness?
- rubyist5eva 5y agoDocker is notorious for completely breaking everything with their updates. They are also very intrusive about it, and make ignoring updates a paid feature. This isn't just a "i don't want to update" issue. It's a "docker is terrible software and their business model is just as terrible".
- oauea 5y agoLiterally never had anything break due to upgrades in the ~7 years I've used docker (on Linux), but ok. Do you have any examples? They renamed some packages a few times but no big deal, just uninstall the old ones and reinstall the new ones and everything's back up & running with all data kept. The worst thing was when they switched from aufs to overlay2 but that was years ago.
- rubyist5eva 5y agoCountless examples of automatic updates borking installs on the github issue tracker.
- darksaints 5y agoWhen they tell you that you need to upgrade if you want fewer updates, you know the daily updates aren't necessary.
- Aeolun 5y agoYou misunderstand. I am not annoyed that it notifies me. I’m annoyed that it keeps notifying me about the same version and locks the ‘skip this version’ button behind a subscription.
