Containers are no crutch. I love containers and use them for everything. They’ve fully replaced VMs and bare metal for me, they’re just easier to use and manage.
Containers are amazing. But they may not be for everything. It also depends what you mean by containers. In this case I think you mean only docker containers. They are amazing, I love them but they are not the silver bullet. But then if you also think about LXC those two types can cover like 99 % of homelab usecases.

I use a mix of docker containers and pods (with quadlets). I actually prefer quadlets where I can use them, though.

Neat, I didn’t know about quadlets, never used podman. Seems like a fun new thing to learn 😀 thanks
