I was typing this on my phone, but yes. This. Thanks!
To add: Mac OS X docker actually, after a while, without errors, stops responding to running dockers and you cannot remove them without reboot. It’s total garbage, but cannot move from it as everyone uses it.
So, emacs-stable alternative for docker. Maybe that should be a movement; emacs-alternative-for. I have many already; software that is fast, can run for months/years and doesn’t get slow vs stuff you need to actually reboot for to run ok. I mean emacs is bloated (yeah right, compared to whatever others are pushing out?) but disk space, even sdd is almost free; it simply runs for months without memory growth or performance degradation. The only reason I stop it because of reboot for sec updates.
- maccard 3y agoI've switched to orbstack on Mac. My experience is significantly better. It's the opposite of emacs-stable for docker, but it's what I want out of docker.
- anonzzzies 3y agoMaybe we mean different things when saying that; I mean that I can throw anything sensible at it and it keeps on chugging. I know if I do something weird, it might die. During dev sessions I don’t do that, I just want to run vanilla containers like mariadb, node etc and pray they don’t randomly crash (they do).
- maccard 3y agoAh, ok. Yeah it works great. When you said emacs, i assumed you meant long term stable, libre philosophy. Orbstack is what docker for Mac should be.
