As I understand it, that’s not entirely correct, and the Docker Desktop we all use and … well, _just use_ … is built from a number of components that are or used to be OSS: Docker, Docker Compose, docker-machine, and Kite, amongst others. Granted, Docker Desktop is more polished than Kite was, but it’s also had years of VC money thrown at it so that it’s almost as bloated in appearance as the Dropbox client. And that’s sort of the problem. I don’t want the Docker Desktop that exists. I want something that does all of the behind-the-scenes stuff that Docker Desktop does and gives me a nearly-identical experience to developing on Linux even though my preference is macOS. I might even pay a _reasonable_ subscription for it. But the Docker Desktop that is? Not exactly something that I think is worth paying for.
