I use apps on my phone, but have no clue how to troubleshoot them. I have programs on my computer that I hardly know how to use, let alone know the inner workings of. How is running things in Docker any different? Why put down people who have an interest in running things themselves?
I know you’re just trying to answer the above question of “why do it the hard way”, but it struck me as a little condescending. Sorry if I’m reading too much into it!
No, I actually think that is a good analogy. If you just want to have something up and running and use it, that’s obviously totally fine and valid, and a good use-case of Docker.
What I take issue with is the attitude which the person I replied to exhibits, the “why would anyone not use docker”.
I find that to be a very weird reaction to people doing bare metal. But also I am biased. ~30 Internet facing services, 0 docker in use 😄
