Docker isn't a platform portable experience fwiw

• thrw42A8N 2y ago
  Your Linux based docker containers can work on all major platforms, how is that not a portable experience?
  • bitfilped 2y ago
    There are more OSs than Windows and Linux :)
    • thrw42A8N 2y ago
      What other portability platform supports all of them? Only the browser if anything, so we build everything in Node and Electron?

  What platform are you thinking you'd want to use this on that docker doesn't support
  • bitfilped 2y ago
    FreeBSD and Solaris mostly for me. There are many other OSs though than Linux and Windows.

      FreeBSD should work with podman, which isn't literally docker but is probably drop in for this use and can use the Linux compatibility layer. A quick turned up https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/freebsd-basics-8-running-linux-containers/ https://www.dbi-services.com/blog/freebsd-basics-8-running-l... which seems to confirm.

    I frequently am bothered that I can't run docker on mainline Android. (Without rooting, qemu, or other malarkey)
