Comment on Getting worn out with all these docker images and CLI hosted apps
mrnobody@reddthat.com 11 hours agoOnce you understand them, I suppose its easier. I’ve got a mix of win10, Linux VMs, RPis, and docker.
Having grown up on Windows, it’s second nature now and I do it for work too. I stated on Linux only around 2010 or so but kept flipping between the2 . anymore, trying to cut the power bill and went RPi but also trying to cut others and so docker is still relatively new in the last few years. Understand that I also do it few and far between at times on projects so is hard to dedicate time to learn enough to be comfortable. It also didn’t help I started on Docker Desktop and apparently everyone hates that and may have been a part of my problem adopting it.

I probably also started with linux seriously around that time frame. I was also a Windows admin back then. Transitioning to Linux and containers was the best thing ever. You get out of dependency hell and having kruft all over your filesystem. I’m extremely biased though, I work for Red Hat now. Containers and Linux are my day job.

Dang, how’d you make that transition? Are you a dev or SWE?

I just liked linux better so I learned it. That’s kind of my whole career, I want to do something so I get certified in it and start looking to get into it. I’m in consulting. I come in and help people setup OpenShift while teaching them how to use it and then move on to the next customer.
