This, this is the key. Docker seems pretty scary and black-box, but everything is available when you learn how it works. You can use your own config files, you can persist whatever data you need, you can make your own images, you can see how the images you have are built, you can gain terminal access to the containers, and you have much better isolation and control than services running directly on the host.
I have a friend that had the same skepticism, so I sat down with him for over two hours and went through docker and how it worked. Once he felt he was in control again and understood how to work with instances and make changes, he quite liked docker.
It's a very strong tool, but you do have to relearn a few things, and just plain old learn a bunch of new things.
What? I think you commented on the wrong post
I posted it on a different post, somehow it ended here. Very sure it wasn't a wrong window or anything since I hadn't opened this post at all before it somehow showed it being posted here.
Anyway, that's why I deleted it. ... please tell me it shows as deleted ...
Not yet, I think there are some bugs yet with Lemmy. On the app I often briefly see the previous comment section before the nee one loads.
