Buy a better supported laptop and stick with Linux.
Last time I ran Docker on a Mac it was sooo slow. Not sure if they've improved that but something to be aware of... https://nodewood.com/blog/how-to-speed-up-docker-on-macos/ https://nodewood.com/blog/how-to-speed-up-docker-on-macos/

- DanHulton 3y agoHey, author of that article. It has improved immensely since I wrote that article, and I'm actually planning on updating it. The short of it is, that you can enable VirtIO file sharing and Rosetta compilation of Docker images in Docker Desktop on Mac now to get massive, massive speed boosts, and it's just clicking some settings in the app. I have compared with some folks at work who have a top-of-the-line Linux laptop, and our speeds inside Docker containers are roughly equivalent with these features enabled. Also, I'm planning on trying out https://orbstack.dev/ https://orbstack.dev/ soon, which is basically an alternative to Docker Desktop with all these optimizations enabled by default and a smaller footprint, so theoretically a lot simpler, still, and plenty fast.
