Call me crusty, old-fart, unwilling to embrace change... but docker has always felt like a cop-out to me as a dev. Figure out what breaks and fix it so your app is more robust, stop being lazy.

I pretty much refuse to install any app which only ships as a docker install.

No need to reply to this, you don't have to agree and I know the battle has been already lost. I don't care. Hmmph.

Why put in a little effort when we can just waste a gigabyte of your hard drive instead?

I have similar feelings about how every website is now a JavaScript application.

Yeah, my time is way more valuable than a gigabyte of drive space. In what world is anyone's not today?

A gigabyte of drive space is something like 10-20 cents on a good SSD.
