This would be fine if Docker wasn't literally force-fed to me over the past six years. It would be fine if their updates didn't totally fuck up my development environment, or completely break it from time to time... it'd be okay if on MacOS you weren't forced into using the desktop application.
shrug In the end I don't particularly care, I still run things like a caveman using processes, systemd units, disk images, and plan for my resource usage. I just find it mighty frustrating and think its short-sighted. Anyone who gets burned by a Desktop update (which they will, this happened to me within this last two months) isn't going to think "oh if only I paid them! Duh! Silly me." Instead it's going to seem like extortion... "Oh no! We broke your development environment! Whoopsie! If you upgrade to pro you can revert and continue working immediately!" Docker was originally "magical" and each year it becomes increasingly less "magical" I can only hope it is worth it.
