Ask HN: What alternatives to Docker Desktop are people using?
We're now a few years out from the Docker licensing fiasco. Who has successfully migrated their company to an alternative? What is working well and what's not?
- nacozarina 10mo agoI have been enjoying containerd & nerdctl on Debian for almost 2 years after being a docker user for ~7 years. nerdctl uses the same syntax, all my compose.yml files still worked, been a very stable experience, have never considered going back no comment on winders or macs options, never touch them for dev work
- prdonahue 10mo agoNice, are you collaborating with developers at your company? Or is this more for personal use?
- satvikpendem 10mo agoPodman
- mr_o47 10mo agoCheckout Orbstack Its available on MacOS
- jdboyd 10mo agoPodman and podman desktop here.
- server_man3000 10mo agoOrbstack has not yet been enshittified yet
- colesantiago 10mo agoHonestly what does enshittified this mean in this case? I can only assume it means “paid” because nobody I know pays for Orbstack or any of these docker tools.
- ActorNightly 10mo agoIf you are container based, Podman is probably the best bet.
- trcarney 10mo agoif you don't need the UI, colima works pretty well for mac
